assumes that the network is available. For Bluetooth it is enough to
have a peer paired.
+When SyncEvolution is compiled with a backend sync daemon
+("syncevo-dbus-server"), then conceptually that daemon controls the
+configuration and coordinates manually and automatically started sync
+sessions. Previously, the command line tool bypassed the daemon by
+running operations itself. Now it can hand over the command line
+parameters to the daemon to be executed there ("--daemon=yes", the

+and output of "syncevolution" are the same as before. Note that the
+daemon only runs one operation at a time, which delays the command
+line client when the daemon is busy. For testing purposes (like
+running a client which talks to a local server in the daemon) it is
+still possible to ignore the daemon (--daemon=no).
