I've just pushed a 0.4.11-5 build to rawhide with support for PacRunner
(which is also now in Fedora now).

So there's a libproxy-pacrunner subpackage, like all the other
subpackages, that will do nothing but query PacRunner.

I'm separately working on fixing NetworkManager to actually *tell*
PacRunner the current proxy configuration, as derived from the network
connection (either automatically or via manual per-connection settings).

But it's actually relatively simple to hack around that for now with a
NM dispatcher script. Having libproxy-pacrunner available is the
important missing piece of the puzzle for now.

Should the dispatcher script be provided by the libproxy-pacrunner sub-package ? Or NM ?

There is probably a need to have theses sub-packages properly installed by default ?
(with the appropriate plugins). Does having particular package set by default should be a feature ?
