Merging the source packages doesn't "fix" #429734, it just happens to update hostapd version to developmental branch capable of working with patched or _very_ specific git hash revision on one of the many wireless-* git's. Sure the kernel ap mode stuff will sort itself out soon enough but what real advantages does having a combined source package give us? I can think of some disadvantage with my limited time: * more time effort required checking binary product before each upload * we upload wpasupplicant _way_ more than hostapd these days, do we really need to increase the upload rate of hostapd? Please provide something in addition to #429734 if possible. Thanks, Kel. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
