Package: hostapd
Version: 2:2.7-2
Severity: normal
Control: found -1 2:2.6-21
I'm running hostapd on a machine that is pure systemd.
I'm using the hostapd@.service generator.
when i do:
systemctl start hostapd@wlp1s0.service
it hangs for a while and then fails. This is because the .service
generator's ExecStart= line doesn't have -B in it, despite saying
Type=forking.
Please either drop Type=forking, or pass -B. Of those too choices, i
think it's better to pass -B on the command line, so that the daemon
has some mechanism of indicating readiness to systemd (detaching and
moving to the background).
Thanks for maintaining hostapd in debian!
