Control: reassign -1 wireless-regdb
Thanks for this detailed and informative bug report. I think the udev
rule belongs to wireless-regdb, as the rule isn't really useful without
the regulatory db, and I don't think we want to make iw Recommend
wireless-regdb. If wireless-regdb adopts the rule then it should at
least Recommend iw, which I think makes sense.
I'm reassigning this bug to wireless-regdb, but I'm open for further
discussion.
Cheers,
Paride
Is there any progress on this? Now that debian begins stabilizing bookworm
release, there is no setregdomain mechanism included.
Fedora has a nice udev script which - if no country is set explicitly - sets
the regulatory domain from the configured time zone:

If there should not be a hard dependency on iw, this might need a separate check
or a warning...
Best regards,
