Thanks Tony, I changed the description as you suggested. ** Description changed:
Binary package hint: wpasupplicant In the process of debugging a failing wireless connection, I noticed lots of messages is /var/log/syslog stating that "Supplicant state changed: 0". Sometimes it says "Supplicant state changed: 1". The problem is that these messages are not documented anywhere, so the information is essentially useless. My suggestion is that the log messages should be modified to state in words what is going on. - Alternatively, the man-page of wpa_supplicant (or possibly - networkmanager) could include a table giving an overview of what the - different states mean. - I am using Hardy 8.04.3 LTS ** Summary changed: - log messages of wpa_supplicant are undocumented + log messages of wpa_supplicant should use human-readable wording ** Description changed: Binary package hint: wpasupplicant In the process of debugging a failing wireless connection, I noticed lots of messages is /var/log/syslog stating that "Supplicant state changed: 0".
