When wpa-conf (or wpa-roam) is used in /etc/network/interfaces, a call
to sed scans the given config file for the ctrl_interface. If it isn't
found, the WPA_SUP_CONF variable is overridden, dropping the
previously-set reference to the config file passed from /e/n/i.

The patch below fixes the use of "wpa-roam
/etc/my_wpa_supplicant.conf" when the config omits ctrl_interface.


Hi Jason,

I believe this was found and fixed a day or so ago as I was preparing the new upstream release, 0.5.4. I simply removed the override, and used a custom ctrl_interface path only when explicitly set in the wpa_supplicant.conf, otherwise defaulting to /var/run/wpa_supplicant.

A snapshot of the package is located at the following location if you would like to compile and verify it yourself:

Thanks, Kel.
