This is a modified package configured to get NetworkManager working exclusively with iwd. Main difference with upstream version is that iwd is required and wpa_supplicant is not needed (so you can uninstall it); iwd seems more reliable on certain wireless cards, so someone could prefer it in place of wpa_supplicant.
It's recommended to enable systemd iwd.service at boot:
systemctl enable iwd.service
Tested with Plasma NM system tray applet (plasma-nm), it's working.
Note that wpa_supplicant is still needed to build the package, but you can uninstall it after the building stage.
