Comment 63 for bug 44194

This bug was fixed in the package wpasupplicant - 0.6.6-2ubuntu1

---------------
wpasupplicant (0.6.6-2ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Operate reasonably when /var is not yet mounted read-write (LP: #44194):
    - 07_syslog.patch: Backport syslog logging support from upstream.
    - 08_syslog_supplement.patch: Add a few more bits missing from the
      upstream patch, based on
      http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/wpa_supplicant/OLPC-2/wpa_supplicant-0.5.7-use-syslog.patch.
      Compile with -DCONFIG_DEBUG_SYSLOG if CONFIG_DEBUG_SYSLOG is set in
      the configuration file.
    - Enable CONFIG_DEBUG_SYSLOG.
    - debian/ifupdown/functions.sh: Set WPA_SUP_LOGFILE to "syslog" by
      default, and use the -s option in this case.
    - debian/ifupdown/functions.sh: Silence wpa_log_* if /var/log is not yet
      writable; there is little we can do in this case (logger is in /usr,
      so may well also be unusable), and the user can always get more
      information by reconnecting later.
