Hi Ian,

I use Network Manager. I just installed enwc from ELPA.  My first instinct was to run M-x elwc, which caused a "enwc-do-scan: Symbol’s function definition is void: nil" message to appear.  Looking at the code, I gathered that I had to run enwc-setup first (why doesn't M-x enwc do that automatically? I saw that in fact this should be done from my .emacs, but I don't want to ENWC in all Emacs sessions).  Running enwc-setup printed "enwc-setup: No usable backend found.", and then a series of "Error running timer ‘enwc-update-mode-line’: (void-function nil)" messages.

It seems that the dbus call for network manager in enwc-setup returns nil for me.

Cheers,
Clément.
