I just reverted upstream commit 691, and did two new commits (700-701, [0]),
hopefully fixing things. From the various bugreports I can understand there's
some AP that reports th fact of being hidden with a NULL byte (one or more,
even). My "solution" is to just replace '\x00' with '': if these are, in fact,
hidden networks, one would connect specifying an ESSID (see [1]), which is
*not* a NULL byte, usually :)
I would be grateful to all of you if you could test the two commits linked in
[0].
If you're not able to apply the patches on your own (remember to delete *.pyc
and *.pyo files!), I can provide the full set of .debs to install with "dpkg
-i".
(please remember to keep in CC at least the two bugreports)
Have a nice day, and thanks for your patience,
David
