Description Trevor Summers Smith 2010-01-18 05:54:50 UTC
There are three problems: 
1) dbus-wpa_supplicant.conf has the wrong src path.
2) The "old" D-Bus service file (dbus-wpa_supplicant.service) has been renamed and has a new src path.
3) A new D-Bus service file has been added (fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.service).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-9999
Actual Results:  
>>> Install wpa_supplicant-9999 into /var/tmp/portage/net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-9999/image/ category net-wireless
!!! newins: dbus-wpa_supplicant.conf does not exist

 *             environment, line 3178:  Called die
 * The specific snippet of code:
 *           newins dbus-wpa_supplicant.conf wpa_supplicant.conf || die;
 *  The die message:

 * If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.

Expected Results:  
The software installs without error.

Proposed fix

I suggest both of the D-Bus service files (old and new services) are included by the "dbus" use flag. This patch follows that suggestion, and fixes this bug.
