Yes, I believe that's possible. As long as whoever compiled the package in the first place also compiled the conman module. Ideally, a package maintainer would put "optional" modules into separate packages, which you could install as needed. I don't think that was done for your package, though. It's also possible for you to compile e17 yourself, with the conman module enabled, and then copy over the compiled module. The following commands will download the e17 package source code and install all build dependencies: apt-get source e17 apt-get build-dep e17 Make sure the conman dev package is installed, as it won't be a listed dependency for the source package. Untar the source code, configure, make, and then copy over your binary module. > Unfortunately, nm was auto-removed when I installed connman, so that > laptop is now offline and no way to connect it back. The deb files are probably cached in /var/cache/apt/archives/ . Remove conman, go into the apt archive directory, and manually reinstall the network manager. > This appears to have been reported four years ago as Debian bug 593366 > as a wishlist item to have it turned on by default.

If they don't use conman, then they probably aren't motivated to include functionality for it. Alas, package maintainers are human.
