[pkg-wpa-devel] Bug#871488: wpasupplicant: Please allow wired interfaces to be configured using systemd

Tue Aug 8 11:34:15 UTC 2017

Package: wpasupplicant
Version: 2:2.4-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

The source package contains the file
wpa_supplicant/systemd/wpa_supplicant-wired.service.arg.in which can be
used to authenticate against a 802.1x network using systemd and
wpasupplicant as described on
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/WPA_supplicant#802.1x.2Fradius.

Applying the following patch would include this .service-file into the
package:
