Package: wpasupplicant Version: 1.0-3+b1 Severity: normal
I've a wlan0 interfaces setup and working using wpasupplicant. I've a custom configuration for eth0 (using guessnet). Using `if-up -v eth0` triggers the scripts, and end-up executing *all* if-pre.d/* scripts. Strangely, wpasupplicant's ifupdown.sh "succeeds", runs a daemon and creates a /var/run/wpa_action.eth0.pid This is probably not expected. Since there's no way to avoid execution of if-*.d/ on an interface definition basis (interfaces(5)), wpasupplicant's ifupdown.sh should be more "intelligent" about whether to run for an interface or not. Currently only a check on $IFACE != lo is done but this is not sufficient. Would wpasupplicant depend upon wireless-tools, it could check the return value of `/sbin/iwconfig $IFACE`. But this is not the case. Thus, in the attached patch, the script returns (code=0) if /sys/class/net/$IFACE/phy80211 does not exist.
