Hi,
I recently filed a Debian Bug against iwd and this is a forward for it:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1002575
"I needed the "EnableNetworkConfiguration=true" setting, which IIUC
should be done in /etc/iwd/main.conf, but I noticed that that file
and directory didn't exist. I resolved it by using mkdir and creating
the file with vim (as root) and I'm assuming/hoping things like
permissions are set correctly. But I did wonder whether I was doing it
incorrectly (and I may have, but it's working)."
The Debian maintainer informed me that there isn't such a config file in the
upstream source code and I think it would be helpful if the directory with the
correct permissions and the config file, which could f.e. only contain a
commented reference to the iwd.config man page, would be created OOTB.
Cheers,
Diederik
