Anybody who prefers libressl over the venerable, but bloated, openssl is going to run into problems when building wpa_supplicant; the build fails. There are two options available:-
1. Libressl will need to be patched before being built. There's discussion here https://is.gd/QjBS3h on the NixOS github page. I haven't tried this as I've already built libressl. 2. Build wpa_supplicant with GnuTLS support instead. As I have GnuTLS installed as well as libressl I tried this approach and it worked well. It just requires adding two additional lines to the wpa_supplicant.configuration file:- CONFIG_TLS=gnutls CONFIG_GNUTLS_EXTRA=yes This is necessary because wpa_supplicant uses openssl by default. Here's a disclaimer: I haven't yet tried running my newly built version of wpa_supplicant. I hope that this is useful to somebody. Richard
