Description episteme promeneur 2012-04-28 14:49:48 CEST

please provide plasma NM 0.9.0.1 and wpa_supplicant 0.8 for mageia 2 x86_64

due to lack of functions of mandriva network management tools in the field of wifi connection
- unable to connect to a hidden wifi network
- unable to connect automaticaly to an id+pwd protected wifi network

i want to replace mandriva network management tools with plasma NM+networkmanager

plasma NM 0.9.0.1 requires :
- wpa_supplicant 0.8
- networkmanager 0.9

see

thanks

addendum :
- i am not sure plasma nm 0.9.3 packet supplied by mageia is the 0.9.0.1 version
- today only wpa_supplicant 0.7.3 is supplied by mageia

We will not update wpa_supplicant (for mga2) this really to critical

Summary: mageia2 plasma-applet-networkmanager 9.0.1, wpa_supplicant 0.8 => plasma-applet-networkmanager 9.0.1

Comment 2 episteme promeneur 2012-04-29 10:46:37 CEST

i don't understand 
i only want a wpa_supplicant 0.8 packet in a backport source.

using backport source is a user choice

We currently don't have backports.
