Package: wlassistant Version: 0.5.7-1+b1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
I am trying to connect to a wifi encrypted with WPA (TKIP-PSK). wlassistant does not create the wpa_supplicant configuration file, so wpa_supplicant cannot proceed and the connection becomes impossible. The output on the shell (some private data are hidden): # wlassistant Loaded application options. All interfaces: ath0, eth0, wifi0 Wireless interface(s): ath0 Permissions checked.
