Thank you very much for your bugreport and your patch.
We are currently preparing an upload for 0.4.7-4, you can look at our
current process here:
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-wpa/trunk/wpasupplicant/?rev=0&sc=0
Parts of your patch are already included there, I will look if anything
is missing. The svn should already be lintian clean.
Thanks again,
Reinhard.
I interigated the svn working copy (revision 50 of pkg-wpa) just now.
01_install-changelog-improvement.patch
Resending the patch to install the upstream changelog properly, it
requires less code, and you don't have to clean it up with a mv command.
I really do not understand what you are doing with the init script. Why
even bother to install it to /etc/init.d/ when it is not even registered
with update-rc.d? Why install it manually? (dh_installinit probably does
not like installing it there without calling update-rc.d perhaps) Would
/usr/sbin not be a more appripriate place? Won't this permanently change
the way debian-users use this package?
Also, the lintian override file is growing!
In the postinst script, all the symlinks in runlevels are purged, but
then invoke-rc.d starts wpasupplicant, why?
The postrm removes non-existant symlinks . . .
Can you please explain a little about how the end user will use this
package now? What is the rough roadmap for this package (planned future
changes)? Maybe then I will understand the current changes better, and
can begin helping you with them instead of asking a million questions :-)
Thanks, Kel.
