[pkg-wpa-devel] Bug#838291: wpasupplicant: networking.service fails to bring up wlan interface, when VERBOSE set to yes

[Kilian Krause]

Hi Dmitriy,

since your bug actually breaks non-VERBOSE mode, I'd suggest using as patch:
--(snip)--
# diff -u /etc/wpa_supplicant/functions.sh /tmp/functions.sh

That one works for me and does maintain the current feature set.

Best,
