And alternative solution would be to drop an override file into /etc/systemd/system/hostapd.service.d/ overriding ExecStart lines. The reason why I’m against applying your patch is that I would like to get rid of DAEMON_CONF because it’s difficult to support properly. Ideally, hostapd.service would only run hostapd with /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf (unless overridden), and hostapd@ would use config files from /etc/hostapd/ with corresponding names. -- Cheers, Andrej
