Yesterday I tried to setup WEP encryption but failed (reported #489948)
and today tried WPA and also failed (reported this). So I assumed that
wpa_supplicant is completely broken for ad-hoc mode and I find this
important. If you disagree then please change the severity.
Btw. I usualy report this kind of bugs directly to the upstream but their
bugzilla requires me to get an account and I don't want to register.

Yes, I think I saw that. There's a 2.6.26-rc9 package on kernel
buildserver so I only need "recent git pull of the supplicant".
