package hostapd retitle 427713 hook script should get moved to 000madwifi reassign 427713 madwifi-tools thanks
In a dynamic setup that launches hostapd via /etc/network/interfaces and wireless interfaces can be brought up and down any time, statically configuring the bridge via /etc/network/interfaces is obviously not possible.
Dynamic interfaces are a problem since they're generated *after* the bridge is created, so the above won't work. There is currently an issue that some madwifi interfaces don't exist before the execution of their hook script and other hook scripts (bridge-utils, hostapd) are executed before madwifi's hook script. You're suggesting on #427713 that we should move hostapd to zz-hostapd, as a sysvinit-style workaround for the lack of dependencies in ifupdown hooks. The same should apply to bridge-utils, which would solve #427724, don't you think? FWIW, I don't. I think that the proper workaround would be to rename madwifi to 000madwifi, since that's where the problem lies.
