Control: tags -1 + confirmed upstream Hello Stephen Gelman,
Thanks for your bug report. On Wed, Aug 07, 2019 at 08:37:43PM -0500, Stephen Gelman wrote: [...] > Upon a little investigation I realized that the missing directory is > /var/lib/iwd.

Yes, /var/lib/iwd (aka @daemon_storagedir@) should definitely exist but I think the upstream build system should create it (and also @wired_storagedir@ when --enable-wired is used). (Sorry I missed this as I already had /var/lib/iwd lingering because of my previous use.) I mentioned this problem on the #iwd irc channel hoping someone would pick up fixing it up. I'll cherry-pick the fix as soon as it's committed upstream. Hopefully someone fixes this up soon. If you're into autotools stuff please do feel free to submit a patch to upstream yourself! (If noone bites I'll see when I find the time.) For now you should work around this by just: sudo mkdir -m 700 /var/lib/iwd Regards, Andreas Henriksson
