  • Package kde-config-mobile-networking - what does it do?

    From Hans@21:1/5 to All on Tue Apr 1 17:10:01 2025
    Hi,

    just a question: today I stumbled over the package "kde-config-mobile- networking" and installed it. But I saw no change of my system. I even did not find any change in kde-systemsettings. Is this an older and unneeded package?

    Network-manager is already creating a connection to the mobile network. And with kdeconnect it is easy to transfer data from and to my phone.

    Besides this, as I am curious; I would like to test it anyway, but I could not find it after install. Where is it to find?

    Best regards

    Hans

    It wasn't hard to perform a web search, resulting in several results.

    Try running `sudo apt info kde-config-mobile-networking` and see what the info says.

    You don't even need sudo for that.
