Hi,
First of all I would like to thank you all for the huge effort that went into packaging the new upstream version, but hostapd 2.0+ causes some nasty problems that prevent creating access points. [1] [2]

Sure it does not affect every hostapd user but it downright renders the package unusable for the ones who are affected. I'm not in a position to give an advice, I just wanted to inform you about a point which may be useful while evaluating the pros and cons of shipping Jessie with the new upstream version.

Best regards,
Mert Dirik
