[Nix-dev] optional packages for KDE

Hello,

during building KDE 4 in NixOS, I got a warning which said something like 
this:

> The following optional packages could not be found on your system: […]

Then came a list of packages that couldn’t be found. It included these:

    • Google Gadgets
    • libgps
    • Network Manager
    • Python
    • XMMS

Is this intended? I’m especially scared by the fact that (parts of) KDE will 
miss Network Manager support. Does this mean that I won’t be able to use the 
Network Manager Plasma widget?

Best wishes,
Wolfgang
