Hi Release Team,

I would like to tender an unblock request for the new version, 0.6.4-1, of
wpasupplicant in unstable.

The package version in Lenny was a based on a fairly recent git snapshot
of hostap.git, that version has now been properly released by upstream. It
would be nice to have this version in the stable release as it fixes a known
broken feature (proactive keycaching) and ehances the wext driver wrapper
to deal with removal/re-insertion of network interfaces.

The new package also cleanses recent changelog entries of information
indicating they were not released versions of the package, as well as some
trivial changes to the ifupdown shell script glue.

This version should also appear in the upcoming Ubuntu release.

wpasupplicant (0.6.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Kel Modderman ]
  * New upstream release
  * Retroactively cleanse past changelog entries of information indicating
    that they were not released, as they were.
  * Use short option for grep (-q) and sed (-n) instead of the busybox
    incompatible --quiet as per advice of Charles-Henri Gros.
  * wpa_action: on connected action, call wpa_hysteresis_event before
    ifup, so that a disconnected action may still be effective should
    the ifup take a long time (eg. dhcp request takes a long time and
    eventually fails).

  [ Alessio Treglia <quadrispro at ubuntu.com> ]
  * Added build-depends on libdbus-glib-1-dev, fixes FTBFS (LP: #256274).
