Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] package/python-nmcli: fix dependencies and add runtime test
Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2026 14:16:21 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260611191621.441-1-frcomdev@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260611191552.414-1-frcomdev@gmail.com>
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().
