Right now, resolvconf is the first Suggests for dhcpcd-base, followed by openresolv. But I recently saw https://bugs.debian.org/860564 ("openresolv is less crippled than debian-resolvconf for security-focused configurations") in which Jason A. Donenfeld said this: Debian has its own "resolvconf" which is vastly inferior and makes it impossible to securely set up DNS servers for ephemeral secure tunnel interfaces. Therefore, I'd suggest that either: a) Debian switch to using Openresolv by default instead of its own "resolvconf" ... So it seems like a good idea to have ``openresolv`` as first suggestion. That is has the same upstream maintainer/developer may be useful too. While researching all this, I also found commit 11bbf768f579 ("Add wpasupplicant to Recommends for dhcpcd-base for SSID profiles") (it's now on ``dhcpcd``) I'm not entirely sure what "SSID profiles" are, but if it is meant to store credentials for multiple wireless networks, that's a functionality that the ``iwd`` package/program also supports. If I 'guessed' "SSID profiles" correctly, maybe add ``iwd`` as an alternative Recommends?
