https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=293773 Summary: Sysconfig scripts (network) should require 'iwconfig' Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 6 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: locilka@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Network sysconfig scripts contain some `iwconfig` calls but this package is not installed on the system (a minimal system has been selected to be installed). It seems that all RPM requirements were fulfilled (sysconfig.rpm) and after closer look, sysconfig's RPM dependencies doesn't contain any obvious relation to the 'iwconfig'. `rcnetwork stop` produces: cannot find 'iwconfig', please install (for each of my LAN cards) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Therefore this error message should vanish. We had no dependency to wireless-tools, since not everybody ahs wlan cards (servers). In the same way there is no dependency for vlan and bridging tools. wireless-tools and friends could be installed if there is such hardware. Joe, what do you think? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'm not sure whether we install wireless-tools automatically at the moment when WLAN hardware is detected but wireless-tools is not installed. yast2-network could easily trigger that. Michal, does YaST check for needed tools on configuring a WLAN interface? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
