Can you check if your do_configure enabled nmtui? log.do_configure or
config.log should help. If it doesn't enable it for you then it will
explain why you don't see the warning (maybe it needs some additional
dependency + libnewt). I haven't looked at the mnetworkmanager sources
at all..

Ah I didn't notice that it's already in DEPENDS.

If nmtui is the only part of networkmanager which is using libnewt then
yes I agree it should be removed from DEPENDS and moved only to
PACKAGECONFIG.
