[pkg-wpa-devel] Bug#361425: wpasupplicant: Works only if options are in an wpa-conf file

[daniel huhardeaux]

Package: wpasupplicant
Version: 0.4.8-2
Severity: normal


Using wpa-conf /path/to/wpasupplicant.conf in interfaces and having options
there is working. Putting each option in interfaces file failed for 3 of them.
Here are outputs from ifupdown.sh script in verbosity mode:

wpa_supplicant: ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
wpa_supplicant: /sbin/wpa_supplicant -B -P /var/run/wpa_supplicant.wlan0.pid -i wlan0 -C /var/run/wpa_supplicant -D ndiswrapper
wpa_supplicant: ctrl_interface socket located at /var/run/wpa_supplicant/wlan0
wpa_supplicant: wpa-eapol-version : Unknown command 'eapol_version'
wpa_supplicant: wpa-ap-scan : Unknown command 'ap_scan'
wpa_supplicant: wpa-fast-reauth  : Unknown command 'fast_reauth'
wpa_supplicant: configuring new network block, guessing network_id of "0"? : 0
wpa_supplicant: wpa-ssid : OK
wpa_supplicant: wpa-psk : OK
wpa_supplicant: wpa-pairwise : OK
wpa_supplicant: wpa-key-mgmt : OK
wpa_supplicant: wpa-proto : OK
wpa_supplicant: enabling network 0 : OK

DHCP offer is not founded, no network. Same option in a conf file (previous wpa_supplicant behaviour) is ok.
