networkmanager: remove modemmanager rdepends 
This reverts commit: 5edb8335dc

The Networkmanager package must not depend on ModemManager. Only the
Networkmanager-wwan package should depend on the ModemManager package.

The mobile-broadband-provider-info is fully optional and it is often not
required for embedded devices. Let the user choose if it gets installed
or not. Adding it explicitely to IMAGE_INSTALL is simple. Adding an
RRECOMMENS would work as well. But adding an RDEPENDS is bad.

In general, NetworkManager packaging is intended to provide a set of
binary packages suitable for building many different images.
NetworkManager is designed to be used for binary packages distributions
where it is not possible to rebuild NetworkManager just to install
Modemmanager. Also for OE, where a rebuilding is possible, a rebuild is
a disadvantage. So please do not destroy this flexibility by adding
RDEPENDS, which are firstly wrong and secondly only suitable for your
specific needs.

meta-networking

This layer is intended to be a central point for networking-related packages and configuration. It should be useful directly on top of oe-core and compliments meta-openembedded. It should be primarily useful to the following groups:

  - Anyone building a small networking device (eg. a home router /
    bridge / switch).

  - Anyone wanting to add network services to their device (eg.
    anything that might benefit from a small ftp/tftp server)

Dependencies

This layer depends on:

URI: git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core branch: master

For some recipes, the meta-oe layer is required:

URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded subdirectory: meta-oe branch: master

URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded subdirectory: meta-python branch: master

Maintenance
