On a recent fresh install of Gentoo, I've noticed this ugly warning message at restart/shutdown:
Code:
ModemManager[11409]: <info>  ModemManager (version 1.20.6) starting in system bus...
ModemManager[11409]: [qrtr] socket lookup from 1:0
ModemManager[11409]: [qrtr] initial lookup finished
ModemManager[11409]: <warn>  could not acquire the 'org.freedesktop.ModemManager1' service name
ModemManager[11409]: <info>  ModemManager is shut down


Digging through my logs, I see this in syslog:
Code:
Jul  9 11:34:23 blackbox dbus-daemon[2756]: [system] Activating service name='org.freedesktop.ModemManager1' requested by ':1.12' (uid=1000 pid=3797 comm="/usr/bin/kded5" label="kernel") (using servicehelper)

I was hoping to easily remove the ugly warning at shutdown since I don't have or use a modem. I thought I could simply disable a service or re-emerge without a use flag, but I'm stuck after digging into it a bit. As best I can tell, it's being pulled in by net-misc/networkmanager. I tried to remove the ppp and modemmanager use flages for net-misc/networkmanager, but that seemed to anger my system and was going to break bluetooth:
Code:
#  cat /etc/portage/package.use/networkmanager
net-misc/networkmanager -ppp -modemmanager

# emerge -vaq net-misc/networkmanager

!!! Problem resolving dependencies for net-misc/networkmanager

!!! The ebuild selected to satisfy "net-misc/networkmanager" has unmet requirements.
- net-misc/networkmanager-1.46.0-r1::gentoo USE="bluetooth concheck elogind gtk-doc introspection nss (policykit) tools wext wifi -audit -connection-sharing -debug -dhclient -dhcpcd -gnutls -iptables -iwd -libedit -modemmanager -nftables -ofono -ovs -ppp -psl -resolvconf (-selinux) -syslog -systemd -teamd -test -vala" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)"

  The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
    bluetooth? ( modemmanager )

  The above constraints are a subset of the following complete expression:
    bluetooth? ( modemmanager ) connection-sharing? ( any-of ( iptables nftables ) ) gtk-doc? ( introspection ) iwd? ( wifi ) test? ( tools ) vala? ( introspection ) wext? ( wifi ) exactly-one-of ( gnutls nss ) at-most-one-of ( elogind systemd ) at-most-one-of ( dhclient dhcpcd ) at-most-one-of ( syslog systemd )


I've happily got Bluetooth working in KDE/Plasma as part of this new/fresh install and I'd rather not break my functioning Bluetooth. I guess things are working and it is really more of an annoyance that I see the warning about 'org.freedesktop.ModemManager1' service at shutdown, but if I could clean it up somehow that would be great. Any ideas?

I posted a similar problem in another thread -- but perhaps it's worse for me, because ModemManager actually breaks things, rather than just generating annoying messages.

I rather hope that '-bluetooth' applied to net-misc/networkmanager affects Bluetooth support only in NetworkManager, and not elsewhere. I would expect that to be the case, but I haven't yet had any feedback, one way or the other.

BR, Lars.
