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.

Thanks Taijian, fixed.

You have a typo in your latest dependency array: jannson> instead of the correct jansson

EDIT: This is specifically in the array for nm-iwd-cloud-setup, the arrays for the other sub-packages are fine.

@rubin55: it works for me.

It looks like your problem is caused by g-ir-scanner. Check if you can invoke it manually. If not, try reinstalling python-setuptools, which provides the distutils module nowadays.

This doesn't look like a bug in the networkmanage-iwd package, because it correctly depends on gobject-introspection (which provides g-ir-scanner) and that package correctly depends on python-setuptools, so it sounds like something is wrong on your system.

I'm getting an error telling me there is no module named distutils:

Hi buzo, thank you I was able to build it with pkgctl build. Guess it's time do ditch yay.

xAsh: Works for me, but I am building in a clean chroot rather than with yay.

Still fails with 1.54, waiting for the maintainer's input before reporting upstream:

Anyone else not able to update because of the check-local-exports-libnm test failing?

The KDE tray icon cannot see WPA3 networks with iwd, only WPA2. if you connect to a WPA3 network with iwctl, it shows you're connected to a wifi network in the tray icon, but if you click it, it doesnt say what network you're connected to.

if your wifi network supports both WPA3 and WPA2 (like mine) it gets further confused, showing you being both connected to the network and not connected at the same time.

if you connect to such a network from the tray icon, it will connect using WPA2. if you then go into settings and tell it to use WPA3 for that network, it will reconnect to that network using WPA3 successfully, and the tray icon will show that you're connected to a network with the same SSID, but if you click the tray icon, the network you're connected to will show up in the list as if you aren't connected.

if you then connect to the network while you're already connected to it, it makes a duplicate profile in networkmanager with all the default settings and using wpa2, and the old profile will never work again so you have to redo all your settings.

Thanks for the patch. Looks like this was fixed upstream (see commit 12eff9a7), but hasn't made it to the networkmanager package yet.
