I currently have a sponsoring request for iw pending[1] in order to
adapt to the libnl3 mini-transition (FTBS), which means I don't want
to change the pending package "silently". However I will add this as
soon as this clears up (iw 3.3 is likely to get released upstream
shortly after the merge window for kernel 3.3 closes).
In case you'd like to sponsor it instead, I've prepared an iw package
containing the new Recommends at[2] (the only change relative to [1]
is the additional Recommends on crda).
