Description:
It seems that wpa_supplicant has been removed from the 05.01 ISO

While there are other wireless tools, I have not found a way to utilize them to connect to a WPA protected WiFi network without wpa_supplicant. Even if it is possible, the hurdles that have to be gone through are far more complex than netctl's wifi-menu which simply needs wpa_supplicant.

Steps to reproduce:
- boot 2019.05.01
- attempt to connect to any WPA WiFi network
This task depends upon
