Bug ID: 8936
Summary: Aircrack-ng - Alot of missing depencies
Product: buildroot
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: Other
Assignee: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
Reporter: lipkegu at gmail.com
CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
Target Milestone: ---

The package "Aircrack-ng" has missing dependencies.

Airmon-ng as its own needs:
rfkill,
ethtool,
wireless-tools
iw
iwconfig

to put wireless cards into monitor mode. these dependencies are also mentored on the webpage on the aircrack-ng site =(

When i select the package it does not select these dependencies :(

--- Comment #2 from Arnout Vandecappelle <[email protected]> --- aircrack-ng is a toolbox with several tools. Not all of them require iw, iwconfig, etc. It is possible that some users only require the tools that don't use these.

That said, it would make sense to mention that explicitly in the help text. I'll submit a patch doing exactly that.

But I'm marking this bug as WONTFIX because we will not select ethtools, iw, etc.

If you disagree, feel free to reopen.
