Hi,

your package build-depends on libiw-dev, which is built from
wireless-tools 30~pre9, from 2009. Please replace it with an actually
maintained library for wireless network interfaces.

Thanks,
Chris

As the key feature of this pkg is to visualize the libiw output, please
consider removing wmwave. It is also not maintained upstream anymore.
