Hello all,

FTR, I only added this /lib/systemd/system-sleep/wpasupplicant quirk
to have a counterpart of /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/60_wpa_supplicant
under systemd, as several users complain about not having wifi after
resuming, and re-adding this hack clearly improved things; OTOH there
are still cases where it doesn't (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1422143).

However, it is just that -- a half-working hack. On most systems (my
own included) this isn't necessary at all, and it just works around
either a kernel bug or a race condition in wpa somewhere. So if you
want to completely drop it from Debian unstable again this is totally
fine IMHO. This at least puts the pressure back to where the real root
cause is :-)

Martin
