Package: wpasupplicant Version: 0.4.7-4 Followup-For: Bug #355052
The "restart" option of the init.d script works more like a broken "toggle". Here's an excerpt of a shell session: $ sudo /etc/init.d/wpasupplicant restart Stopping wpa_supplicant: done. Starting wpa_supplicant: process already running. done. $ sudo /etc/init.d/wpasupplicant restart Stopping wpa_supplicant: No wpa_supplicant found running; none killed. done. Starting wpa_supplicant: done. $ sudo /etc/init.d/wpasupplicant restart Stopping wpa_supplicant: done. Starting wpa_supplicant: done. $ sudo /etc/init.d/wpasupplicant restart Stopping wpa_supplicant: done. Starting wpa_supplicant: process already running. done. $ sudo /etc/init.d/wpasupplicant restart Stopping wpa_supplicant: No wpa_supplicant found running; none killed. done. Starting wpa_supplicant: done. $ sudo /etc/init.d/wpasupplicant restart Stopping wpa_supplicant: done. Starting wpa_supplicant: process already running. done. $ sudo /etc/init.d/wpasupplicant restart Stopping wpa_supplicant: No wpa_supplicant found running; none killed. done. Starting wpa_supplicant: done. At this point the last two states just repeat. I really didn't have the drive to find out exactly where the problem is. I think I remember person who posted this bug originally might have included a patch for some of the problems. If I get a chance to look into it, I'll come back with more. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-hole Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages wpasupplicant depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libncurses5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.1-6 GNU readline and history libraries ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8a-7 SSL shared libraries wpasupplicant recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
