Package: iwd
Version: 3.3-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: matt...@gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

Please remove wpasupplicant from network-manager-iwd's conflicts list:
iwd doesn't provide all the same features as the ones from
wpa_supplicant, especially everything not related to the Wireless world,
e.g. Ethernet authentication (bug#956457), or some more specific
features like MACsec.

wpa_supplicant and iwd can then be used in parallel, for different
purposes.

If anything, this package could eventually "suggest" to stop and disable
the wapsupplicant service to save a bit of resources, but I guess it
should not do this action by default.
