Description wd 2010-04-30 16:54:39 UTC
Openrc net.lo check /sbin/wpa_supplicant to decide to put or not to put wpa_supplicant into modules list.

But net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-0.7.1 will not put a wpa_supplicant command at /sbin, it will put at /usr/sbin.

So net.lo will never use wpa_supplicant even if you configured as modules="wpa_supplicant" in configure file.

sys-apps/baselayout-2.0.1
sys-apps/openrc-0.6.1-r1
net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-0.7.1

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
sudo ln -s /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant /sbin/wpa_supplicant
