After configuring a WLAN-connection with YaST, the connection is not established.
I don't get any error-messages from YaST.
"ifup wlan0" on the console gives me

    wlan0     name: RTL8187_Wireless
cannot find 'iw', please install

After installing the iw-package, everything works fine.

YaST-logs are attached.

Comment 1 Marius Tomaschewski 2009-10-07 16:48:38 UTC 
BTW: The check has been changed to check for iw only when it is required,
     because on rpm update no yast2 is involved.
     In Base:System/sysconfig project (submit request 21579 to factory).
