After updating wpa_supplicant from the last stable version to 0.5.7 my madwifi card didnt work. (/etc/init.d/ath0 start) After 1/2h i figured out, that the /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf moved to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf and that the init script was using the new and empty config file. After moving my old config file to /etc/wpa_supplicant/ all was fine again. In the irc many others had that same problem so maybe we could change the ebuild and inform about that change or move the file with etc-update if thats possible. einfo "In ${PV} the location of the wpa_supplicant.conf changed from /etc/wpa_supllicant to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf" einfo " Please update your config" something like that? Reproducible: Always
