I don't think that package will be found on stock debian disks but I
could be wrong. I'll have to make sure my debuan is up to date and try
this one.

The debian web page on how to use wifi is useless. Has anyone here got
experience setting up a workable version of /etc/network/interfaces? I can
probably put mine up on this list if it will help.
I've been experimenting with simple-netaid, a command-line utility for
configuring wireless networks. A little cryptic, but usable.
https://git.devuan.org/devuan-packages/simple-netaid.git
The executable is called 'backend'. Here is the help:
Usage:
backend -h|--help # Print this message.
backend 0 ESSID PWD # Save PWD for ESSID.
backend 1 ESSID PWD # Save PWD for ESSID and connect to ESSID.
backend 2 ESSID # Query saved connection ESSID for wpa-ssid.
backend 3 ESSID # Delete saved connection ESSID.
backend 4 ESSID # Connect to ESSID.
backend 5 # Disconnect active connection.
backend 6 # Scan to standard output.
backend 7 # List saved connections to standard output.
backend 8 # Detailed scan to standard output.
backend 9 eth0 # Connect to eth0.
backend 10 # Automatically attempt to connect.
backend 11 # Brute force call ifdown for all devices.
