Debian Patches

Status for iwd/3.11-2

Patch Description Author Forwarded Bugs Origin Last update
1001_support_traditional_dbus_activation.patch hook up traditional dbus activation On systems using systemd dbus will use the SystemdServices= directive,
but on non-systemd systems
the so called "traditional dbus activation" method
involves reading the Exec= directive.
Setting that to /bin/false means this service is not relevant
on non-systemd systems,
but apparently there's an interest from users of such systems
to use iwd (and possibly ead).
Thus hook up the expansion of the paths
in the Exec= directive of the dbus service files
to allow the traditional dbus activation to start respective daemon.

2001_group_sudo_not_wheel.patch use system group sudo instead of wheel System group wheel is unused on Debian systems by default,
and granting access based on it is a security risk,
as a group with that name might be added locally
for a different purpose.

2002_allow_resolvconf.patch permit updating /etc/resolv.conf When iwd is configured to use openresolv
(NameResolvingService=resolvconf in /etc/iwd/main.conf),
resolvconf fails to update /etc/resolv.conf
due to the iwd systemd unit setting ProtectSystem=strict.
.
This patch exceptionally permits writing to /etc/resolv.conf.
