hostapd-2.6-libressl.patch

Apply this for 2.6.
This are three more patches that are already in the upstream master, but were not commited in 2.6 yet.

These are the top three one can see at http://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/log/?qt=grep&q=libressl

Comment 6 Marek Behún 2018-03-13 12:51:06 UTC

As I am using gentoo on my wireless routers and am patching hostapd at least once in 3 months, I am willing to maintain this package...

"ssl" USE flag will be removed, and a choice between openssl, libressl and gnutls will be provided. I am working on this now, stay tuned.
