This should depend on BR2_PACKAGE_NETWORK_MANAGER, as it probably
doesn't make any sense to have this package without also having
network-manager on your device?
And then you can select BR2_PACKAGE_NETWORK_MANAGER_CLI to ensure the
nmcli part also gets enabled automatically when you enable python-nmcli.

Please make sure your files all have a newline at the end.
A general note for these type of packages with runtime dependencies
(which applies to python packages in general but also for this
specifically for the network-manager dependency): it would be really
good to add a runtime test together with the package [1]. It helps to
test the package when reviewing and ensures it doesn't silently break
with some network-manager update.
I've marked this as changes requested in patchwork.
Best,
Marcus

Hi Marcus,
Thanks for the review. Updated patch attached:
- BR2_PACKAGE_NETWORK_MANAGER dependency and BR2_PACKAGE_NETWORK_MANAGER_CLI select
- trailing newlines in all package files
- runtime test exercising nmcli.general.status() with systemd + NetworkManager
Best regards,
Alexandre

Depend on network-manager and select nmcli support so the Python wrapper can invoke the nmcli binary at runtime. Add a runtime test that boots with systemd and exercises nmcli.general.status().
