Package: wpasupplicant
Version: 2:2.7-3
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I'm running buster but installed wpasupplicant from unstable to test
as there recently was a call for testing of the new 2.7 version
before buster release.
I'm having problems connecting to my hidden wifi network.
I'm using the broadcom proprietary wifi driver (which is generally
is a "barely usable" state, like you would expect from a proprietary
driver).
I'm not sure if any of the above parameters are relevant though.
Trying connect to another SSID on the same AP that is _not_ hidden
didn't work either.
Downgrading to wpasupplicant/testing makes things work again for me.
ie. 2:2.6-21 works.
(The version from experimental, 2:2.7+git20190108+11ce7a1-1, seems to
behave the same way as the version in unstable. ie. not working.)
The AP I'm trying to connect to is "Unifi AP AC Pro".
Some info about my wifi interface:

This might be a duplicate of https://bugs.debian.org/919138 but
the journalctl output doesn't look exactly the same so reporting
a separate issue.
Here's a bunch of journalctl output that I get when running
"nmcli c up MYHIDDENNETWORK":
