I upgraded wpa_supplicant-2.6 to r3 and it broke my wifi. The wpa_supplicant daemon would load successfully with no errors. Ifconfig showed my wifi interface with no issues. But I could not scan in wpa_cli and dhcpcd <interface> would not really get lease me a ipaddress(even though it didn't complain). Also, wpa_gui would not load. I rolled back to wpa_supplicant-2.6 and my wifi worked again. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.upgrade to wpa_supplicant-2.6-r3 from wpa_supplicant-2.6 2.Try to lease ip address or scan in lease a ip address with dhcp 3. no wifi functionality without errors or complaints Actual Results: upgrade to wpa_supplicant-2.6-r3 from wpa_supplicant-2.6 Expected Results: wifi functionality should work as it did with wpa_supplicant-2.6. localhost one # emerge
