Re: netctl provides wifi-menu which is unusable

Of course I have but the question is - what is the point of providing a binary that doesn't work at all without some optdepends?

Optdepends are used for software like lighttpd or apache where some optional modules may need these optdepends. /usr/bin/wifi-menu is a first class citizen of this package, not just some optional module.

I don't know of any other package that would do the same.

I do pay attention to the output, but current state of wifi-menu in netctl is a nonsense. And what is a nonsense needs to be fixed, right? Three other people already agree with me.
