Package: wpasupplicant Version: 0.6.9-3 Severity: normal -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
Hi, I’m running wpa_supplicant on my FreeRunner in roaming mode, and with allow-hotplug to start it. It starts fine, but when then the WLAN interface is powered off and disappears (and udev/hotplug/something calls ifdown eth0), wpa_supplicant is still running. This is not surprising, given that wpa_action take over ifup/ifdown, and ifdown does not work any more, but it would be nice if this could be improved. Perferably by making ifdown eth0 work as expected. Have you considered setting an environment variable when calling ifdown from wpa_action, to be able to distinguish later?
