Description:
I noticed the betas are being packaged now and thought I'd move back to the community package. Sad to see the dependency on net-tools. As far as I can tell, net-tools is only needed for the airmon-{ng,zc} scripts, which are basically useless since their functionality can be captured by a couple ip or iw commands for supported cards. Please, if you would, drop net-tools to an optional dependency. |

I am fine with whatever needs to happen for the net-tools dependency to be dropped when the next release happens.
Edit: poking around the source, just airoscript-ng (not even part of the package) and 'src/osdep/linux.c' look like they need it; the latter looks like for madwifi
