[pkg-wpa-devel] Bug#644084: failed to initialize AP scan (kfreebsd/squeeze)

[Robert Millan]

Package: wpasupplicant
Version: 0.6.10-2.1
Severity: grave
User: debian-bsd at lists.debian.org
Usertags: kfreebsd

**** This problem is fixed in wpasupplicant 0.7.3-4 ****

**** This problem is NOT the same as #634935 ****

wpasupplicant 0.6.10-2.1 failed to initialize AP scan on my Squeeze
Debian GNU/kFreeBSD system:

$ sudo wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c wlan.conf
ioctl[SIOCS80211, op 103, arg 0x0]: Invalid argument
Failed to initiate AP scan.
ioctl[SIOCS80211, op 103, arg 0x0]: Invalid argument
Failed to initiate AP scan.
[... repeatedly untill interrupted ]

Notice that the ioctl error is also present in bug #634935.  It is probably
unrelated to this problem.
