>Environment:
System: NetBSD/i386 8.1 (GENERIC)
Architecture: i386 (affects all ports)
Machine: i386
>Description:
The dhcpcd(8) man page suggest to install 10-wpa_supplicant files
to use WiFi devices with dhcpcd(8):
---
More scripts are supplied in /usr/share/examples/dhcpcd/hooks and need to
be copied to /libexec/dhcpcd-hooks if you intend to use them. For
example, you could install 10-wpa_supplicant so that dhcpcd can ensure
that wpa_supplicant(8) is always running on a hot-plugged wireless
interface.
---
and it works fine.
However src/distrib/sets/lists/base/mi has the following entry:
---
./libexec/dhcpcd-hooks/10-wpa_supplicant base-obsolete obsolete
---
So the manually installed 10-wpa_supplicant script is removed
as obsolete on every upgrade installation by sysinst(8)
(or postinstall(8) fix command).
>How-To-Repeat:
- copy /usr/share/examples/dhcpcd/hooks/10-wpa_supplicant to
/libexec/dhcpcd-hooks
- upgrade the system to 8.1 using sysinst
>Fix:
Remove the entry of ./libexec/dhcpcd-hooks/10-wpa_supplicant from
src/distrib/sets/lists/base/mi?
