            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 :(

Linux

    Airmon-ng requires ethtool and rfkill
    LibNetlink 1 (libnl-dev) or 3 (libnl-3-dev and libnl-genl-3-dev)
development packages
    Kernel headers and gcc as well as make have to be installed on your system
(build-essential on Debian based distributions)

--- Comment #2 from Arnout Vandecappelle <arnout@mind.be> ---
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.
