Define not startable. Do you mean this error, or some other one?
I mean the error I pasted into my first comment. Can you not see it?
# /usr/libexec/iwd/iwd RC4 support not found The following options are missing in the kernel: CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_SKCIPHER CONFIG_CRYPTO_ECB CONFIG_CRYPTO_ARC4 # echo $? 1
That matches precisely what's visible in the journal output in my first comment, including the return code of iwd ("iwd.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE"). I *also* ran the commands as you did, with identical results. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

No. Now that you mention it, this bugzilla entry only shows comments 3, 4 and 5 to me, which means anything prior was either deleted or somehow marked hidden/private, though I have only ever seen the private flag being set on a ticket as a whole, not for individual comments (that would be very confusing, as there is no error message like there is for a private ticket).
That's very odd. FWIW, I only see my first comment when I'm logged in. However, even then I don't see comments 2 and 3, but I didn't get any emails about them either. Could changes to the bug (e.g., reassignments) cause comment # bumps? Anyway, just so you can see it, here's what's in my first comment: (In reply to Marc Joliet from comment #0)
