Dear Manoj, I've worked around the issue with using alternative WPA offerings that have appeared in the meanwhile (there are other bugs though that I've reported separately - network-manager, for instance), and I use wpa_client, ifplugd, and thereabouts, so retesting is a major undertaking for me and involves reconfiguring several parts of my system and finding an environment that still offers WEP. I cannot set one up myself for lack of suitable access points, so we'll have to wait until I happen to come across one while travelling. Since I believe neither in "just try it out" nor "magically self-fixing bugs": why would anyone assume the bug had disappeared in the next releases? Is there evidence in the driver's or wpa_applicant's changelogs that the bugs might have been fixed, and what its nature was? I don't mean to complain, but this is really a reason to deal with bugs promptly, rather than defer to upstream or whoever, and wait for somebody else to fix them. We're now 20 months and three releases past the report...
