New versions of the Host AP driver, hostapd, and wpa_supplicant were just released and are now available from http://hostap.epitest.fi/ This release is a bug fix version from the stable (0.3.x) branch and it replaces 0.3.7/0.3.8 as the recommended stable version. Main development continues in the development branch (0.4.x).
This was released only a few hours ago. No need to file enhancement requests for version bumps that soon after release; we follow the lists as well.
Sorry about that... A version bump seems to do fine. though my ipw2100/wpa problems still aren't solved :( I've created this patch to go from 0.3.8 to 0.3.9: --- /usr/portage/net-wireless/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-0.3.8.ebuild 2005-05-27 10:05:52.000000000 +0200 +++ wpa_supplicant-0.3.9.ebuild 2005-06-11 11:04:32.000000000 +0200 @@ -90,8 +90,8 @@ insinto /etc newins wpa_supplicant.conf wpa_supplicant.conf.example - newinitd ${FILESDIR}/${P}-init.d wpa_supplicant || die - newconfd ${FILESDIR}/${P}-conf.d wpa_supplicant || die + newinitd ${FILESDIR}/${PN}-0.3.8-init.d wpa_supplicant || die + newconfd ${FILESDIR}/${PN}-0.3.8-conf.d wpa_supplicant || die } pkg_postinst() {
The init script will be removed in this version. It has been superseded by sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.x. The ipw2100 problem is known, and lies within the ipw2100 driver itself. A patch has been submitted, and wpa_supplicant-0.3.9 will not be marked stable before ipw2100-1.1.1 is in the tree.
net-wireless/hostap-driver-0.3.9, net-wireless/hostapd-0.3.9 and net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-0.3.9 are now in portage.
