Package: netcfg
Version: 0.70
Severity: minor
This is pretty minor, I admit, but the various documents that discuss
options in /etc/network/interfaces have been moving toward a standard of
using hyphens rather than underscores in option names. Either hyphens
or underscores can be used so this change won't make any functional
difference; however, writing an /e/n/i with hyphenated rather than
underscored option names may reduce user confusion a wee bit.
The only places I found that write out wireless-* options are dhcp.c
and static.c. Here's a patch that changes those two files.
