Really? Please share more info! It certainly doesn't for me.

AFAIK the usual debian kernel team policy is to enable things on request, so someone just needs to request it. Since you're not the first to ask *me* (even though I'm not on the kernel team) I've already asked on #debian-kernel if they can enable it while at the same time asking people to please not use me as a proxy. > > Since I have no idea what does pkcs8_key_parser do, I don't know if it > would be best to have linux enable that option or to have iwd not ship this > file. It is needed if you want to use iwd to connect to wpa enterprise networks. The reason to ship the pkcs8.conf file is explained as a comment inside it (no autoloading of module, so modular builds would still be as broken as non-enabled if not shipping it). To summarize: I don't really see anything to change in *iwd*. Please talk directly to kernel people for kernel stuff. Please don't repurpose bug reports for new topics. Regards, Andreas Henriksson
