Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and contributing to
Ubuntu.

The `wireless-tools` package that ships the `iwconfig` userspace utility
has been removed in Ubuntu 24.10 "oracular" (see LP bug #2075850). So we
should replace this command.

Title:
  apport tries to invoke iwconfig which has been removed from oracular

Status in Apport:
  In Progress
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  On a NanoPi R4S, reporting a problem with the first reboot, apport
  tries to invoke iwconfig. This has been removed, iw should be used
  instead. Which is no drop-in replacement. apport requires some
  changes.

  On a system that does not have a wireless interface, it is sufficient
  to symlink /usr/sbin/iwconfig to /usr/bin/true to supress the error.
