Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, the dbus-python package was missing from the system-config-network-tui dependency list. Consequently, when the system-config-network-tui package was installed on a system with a minimal installation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the system-config-network-tui utility failed to start. The missing dependency has been added to the dependency list of system-config-network-tui, thus the utility works as expected in the described scenario.
