@jarbowski I agree that dhcpcd-dbus is no longer needed as dhcpcd-ui will not use it since version 0.7.0. However, the archlinux dhcpcd package is the one that should set the group and permissions on the configuration file to wheel since the default for the package is to permit wheel group access to the privileged control group socket /run/dhcpcd/sock.

I have been using a separate dhcpcd.service file on my systems that uses a separate dhcpcd.conf file where the permissions on the .conf file and those inside for the control socket are set appropriately. I still, however, use the distribution dhcpcd package.

Hi, "dhcpcd-dbus>=0.6.0" in the depends section isn't needed anymore. You should change permissions to the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file to let dhcpcd-ui edit it (your user in the wheel group): chgrp wheel /etc/dhcpcd.conf chmod g+w /etc/dhcpcd.conf Here is a working PKGBUILD: https://pastebin.com/bKPDASJD Cheers

Just installed 0.75.2. Same issue and error messages as already reported here in ... March 2015. Does not work for me.

dhcpcd-ui works with GTK3. Shouldn't the dependency be bumped?

I got the following error when trying to launch it: ** Message: Connecting ... ** Message: Status changed to down ** (dhcpcd-gtk:4497): CRITICAL **: dhcpcd_open: No such file or directory Even though I already had connected to my network using dhcpcd at bootup time I ran dhcpcd (as root as the program told me to do) and got: dhcpcd[4543]: version 6.7.1 starting dhcpcd[4543]: DUID 00:01:00:01:1c:29:88:5a:60:a4:4c:b4:5d:cc dhcpcd[4543]: eno1: IAID 4c:b4:5d:cc ** Message: Status changed to opened ** Message: Connected to dhcpcd-6.7.1 ** Message: Status changed to connecting ** Message: eno1: Cable plugged in dhcpcd[4543]: eno1: soliciting an IPv6 router dhcpcd[4543]: eno1: rebinding lease of 192.168.7.100 dhcpcd[4543]: eno1: changing route to 192.168.7.0/24 dhcpcd[4543]: eno1: changing default route via 192.168.7.1 dhcpcd[4543]: forked to background, child pid 4555 After that I run dhcpcd-gtk again and got: ** Message: Connecting ... ** Message: Status changed to down ** Message: Status changed to opened ** Message: Connected to dhcpcd-6.7.1 ** Message: Status changed to connected ** Message: eno1: CARRIER ** Message: eno1: Configured 192.168.7.100/24 But no window opened! Is this a problem with the package and someone can confirm this or is it a problem with my config and I should ask in the forum / elsewhere? Also, on the website notification-daemon-0.3.7 is said to be an optional dependency, is this libnotify here and should it be made optional or should sth. like notification-daemon-gtk2 be added to the dependencies?
