I know that net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-0.6.3 is both new to portage as well as being hard-masked, currently. However, it (and predecessors in both the stable and development streams of this application) has a feature of supporting debug log to a file. I have found this useful, having enabled it in my own versions of the ebuilds. It is enabled by adding echo "CONFIG_DEBUG_FILE=y" >> .config to the relevant ebuild and activated by '-f <logpath>' at runtime. It would be useful to have this available so that diagnostic logging can all be trapped, and in one place as well. Thanks. Reproducible: Always
I have added USE=debug in =net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-0.6.4, that enables this feature. Thanks for the bug report.
