Package: wpasupplicant
Version: 0.6.9-3
Severity: normal
I think that the dbus configuration file at
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant.service
is wrong; the line
Exec=/sbin/wpa_supplicant -u -s
doesn't work for me; no key gets set for the wireless interface, although
an strace shows that wpa_supplicant is reading the config file and setting
the ESSID and the frequency (via ioctl), but no keys.
If I replace the line with
Exec=/sbin/wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/home.conf
I get a connection just fine.
Strangely it did work some days ago (1-3 weeks); but that's where I could
trace an error.
Regards,
Phil

It is correct. There is no problem there.

Then whatever dbus-using user interface which feeds the dbus activated
wpa_supplicant process is at fault or poorly configured.

Maybe NetworkManager and associated libs changed.
Closing.
