iwpriv is used by tuned but not shipped by default #836

Description

@flexagoon

I reported this on Redhat Bugzilla 9 months ago, since this is related to Fedora, but haven't received any response, so I assume it has to be reported here

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2372365


The tuned powersave profile tries to enable wifi power saving by default, which requires the iwpriv package:

tuned/functions

Line 315 in 1c746a3

iwpriv $iface set_power $level

However, iwpriv is not shipped on Fedora, so the power saving profile doesn't fully work.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Enable the powersave tuned profle

Actual Results:
Wifi power saving is not enabled

Expected Results:
Wifi power saving should be enabled
