The man page refers to "iw help" for more detailed information which is the
wrong way around IMHO.
Hi David,
I agree in principle, however I think this should be fixed upstream
rather than downstream (in Debian). Even if the effort of writing a more
comprehensive manpage began from Debian, I'd suggest to submit the patch
for upstream inclusion, which would have several benefits:
- reduced risk of ending up with an out-of-sync manpage
- review and feedback from upstream devs
- wider reach due to adoption in other GNU/Linux distros
This said, I'll certainly review patches against the Debian package
improving on the status quo, but for the moment I'm tagging this bug
report as 'wontfix' not to create expectations.
