[Bug 336915] Re: wireless-crda breaks capability to connect hidden wlan
I've unmarked bug #340995 as a duplicate of this bug to use that report to keep track of the small problem with the extra slash. I suspect this bug has already been fixed when the contents of the RUN field in the rules file were changed from /sbin/ to /sbin//crda, which means this bug has been fixed already by a previous release of wireless-crda. Can anyone here confirm that theory? -- wireless-crda breaks capability to connect hidden wlan https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/336915 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 336915] Re: wireless-crda breaks capability to connect hidden wlan
I can confirm that it originally failed for me (/sbin), and by updating manually to /sbin/crda resolved the issue. I have tried manually changing it to /sbin//crda and this also works fine for me. So the first fix probably did resolve the issue, despite the odd-looking extra slash. If you can tell me how to force v1.7 to be installed on top of my local change, I am happy to test that. Sorry, apt-get upgrade is about the limit of my apt/dpkg knowledge. -- wireless-crda breaks capability to connect hidden wlan https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/336915 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Marking it as Fix Released. Thanks to everyone for their input. Editing the rules file solves the problem, so that should be enough for now. There is no need to update to a newer version of wireless-crda if you adapted the rule. If the bug does still occur, or comes back, please reopen the bug. ** Changed in: wireless-crda (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Fix Released -- wireless-crda breaks capability to connect hidden wlan https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/336915 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 336915] Re: wireless-crda breaks capability to connect hidden wlan
Adding /usr/local/lib/crda/regulatory.bin as first in the search path was done to allow users to use a local alternative. It also looks in the /usr/lib/crda/regulatory.bin file, but the entries in the (optional) first file have a higher priority. This is done because sometimes the contents of /usr/lib are similar for lot of systems, so differences can only be placed in /usr/local. If you don't get errors like failed to open db file that change ought to have no influence. I've attached a diff of wireless-crda 1.6 compared to wireless-crda 1.5 so we can see if there is a change that caused this bug. The only changes that were made, were the addition of two regularity.bin paths -- and a check to see if there was actually one to read -- and adaptions to the Makefile, which include using the $(SBINDIR) variable instead of sbin and replacing the text $(SBINDIR) with the value of the variable $(SBINDIR) in the rules file. Since Loïc Minier said the extra slash doesn't do any harm I'd like to ask you all if you're really sure the change fixed your setup or if it was something else. Did the change also fix it when you were using 1.6? The only reason I can come up with is that the first slash misses, but that should be fixed as well in (at least) 1.10. Can anyone tell me if the first slash is missing in earlier versions? ** Attachment added: wireless-crda-1.5 to wireless-crda 1.6 http://launchpadlibrarian.net/31387990/wireless-crda.diff -- wireless-crda breaks capability to connect hidden wlan https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/336915 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It has been a while since this bug was reported. The last commenter says 1.7 works again. Is this true for everyone or does it still not work properly?
