Package: network-manager-gnome Version: 1.8.18-1 Severity: wishlist I recently discovered that there is a defacto standard for converting WiFi configs to QR codes and back again.
https://qifi.org/ https://github.com/zxing/zxing/wiki/Barcode-Contents#wifi-network-config-android It would be nice if the NetworkManager user interface could support this by allowing users to: * show a QR code on the screen * print a QR code onto paper * import config from a QR code in a photo * import config from a QR code from webcam output This would be a nicer way to transfer the information than reading it aloud, especially for Internet cafes or other places where it could be put up on a wall. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing-debug APT policy: (900, 'testing-debug'), (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable-debug'), (800, 'unstable'), (790, 'buildd-unstable'), (700, 'experimental-debug'), (700, 'experimental'), (690, 'buildd-experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.18.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_AU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages network-manager-gnome depends on: ii dbus-x11 [dbus-session-bus] 1.12.10-1 ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.30.0-1 ii gnome-flashback [polkit-1-auth-agent] 3.30.0-1 ii gnome-shell [polkit-1-auth-agent] 3.30.0-2 ii libatk1.0-0 2.30.0-1 ii libayatana-appindicator3-1 0.5.3-4 ii libc6 2.27-6 ii libcairo2 1.15.12-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.38.0+dfsg-6 ii libglib2.0-0 2.58.1-2 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.0-3 ii libjansson4 2.11-1 ii libmm-glib0 1.7.990-1 ii libnm0 1.12.4-1 ii libnma0 1.8.18-1 ii libnotify4 0.7.7-3 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.42.4-3 ii libsecret-1-0 0.18.6-2 ii libselinux1 2.8-1+b1 ii network-manager 1.12.4-1 ii policykit-1-gnome [polkit-1-auth-agent] 0.105-7 Versions of packages network-manager-gnome recommends: ii awesome [notification-daemon] 4.2-5 ii gnome-flashback [notification-daemon] 3.30.0-1 ii gnome-keyring 3.28.2-1 ii gnome-shell [notification-daemon] 3.30.0-2 ii iso-codes 4.1-1 ii mobile-broadband-provider-info 20170903-1 ii notification-daemon 3.20.0-3 Versions of packages network-manager-gnome suggests: pn network-manager-openconnect-gnome <none> ii network-manager-openvpn-gnome 1.8.4-1 ii network-manager-pptp-gnome 1.2.6-2 pn network-manager-vpnc-gnome <none> -- no debconf information -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
