[pkg-wpa-devel] Bug#350963: Does this bug still affect you?

Hi Sven,

the latest version of wpasupplicant is now called by ifupdown. This
means, for hotpluggable network interfaces like your pcmcia card, you
just need to make sure that your interface ath0 gets ifupped as soon as
you insert your network card. (on a side note: in ubuntu, this is
handled via udev, you could implement this in debian as well).

I observed that this bug when ath-pci is not loaded. With ath-pci is
loaded, wpasupplicant, I cannot see this bug.

Since wpasupplicant is now only called after you insert your card, I
think you are no longer affected by this bug. Therefore I tagged it
upstream and lowered severity to minor. If this bug truely doesn't
affect you any longer, please close this bug.

Gruesse,
	Reinhard
