This bug is still valid in Xenial 16.04. My system is connected via LAN and doesn't have a wireless card installed.
Because of the dependency, wpa_cli is run on each suspend/resume cycle and fails of course. There is no technical reason for this dependency, and a recommendation is strong enough to satisfy the perceived need, while still allowing to get rid of wpasupplicant. I consider shifting the decision to Debian maintainers a dummy argument. It would not be the first time, where changes flow from Ubuntu to Debian. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/738617 Title: package should not depend on wpasupplicant Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: network-manager I think the network-manager package should recommend the wpasupplicant but not depend on it. Basically, on old hardware which doesn't use a wireless network, it could help to uninstall wpasupplicant.
