# This week in KISS (#3)

Another quiet week.

I spent time working on my password manager
[pash](https://github.com/dylanaraps/pash) rewriting it in POSIX shell.

I've also started work on a fork of
[iwd](https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/wireless/iwd.git/about/)
(*called eiwd*) which works without `dbus`. You can read more about it
below.

A big thank you to everyone using and contributing to KISS!

## EIWD version 0.1.0 released

This is the first release of my fork of `iwd` with the `dbus` dependency
removed.

So far, all `dbus` code has been removed from the daemon and it is
functional solely through its network configuration files.

A simple utility has been added to aid in the creation of the network
config files called `iwd_passphrase`. This works similarly to
`wpa_passphrase`, automating the process.

The next steps are to write a client utilizing a different IPC
mechanism. I haven't yet decided what kind of IPC I'll implement, any
suggestions are welcome.

Until then, I'm really enjoying `iwd`. I'm using it additionally as my
DHCP client and it connects to networks a lot faster than
`wpa_supplicant`.

For KISS users, `eiwd` is available in the repositories and its current
usage is similar to that of `wpa_supplicant` (without `wpa_cli`).

Release: <https://github.com/dylanaraps/eiwd/releases/tag/0.1.0>

## Rust and Firefox now build on powerpc64le

Rust and Firefox now build on powerpc64le leaving only a small handful
of packages with issues.

This is thanks to the continued work by
[jdavies-dev](https://github.com/jdavies-dev)!

## Qt5 is now in testing

The `qt5` base has been added to the testing repository.

I hope to soon tackle the beast that is `qtwebengine` and open up the
possibilities for additional browsers (other than Firefox) on KISS.
