Description Andrei Borzenkov 2020-03-22 08:07:28 UTC

wpa_supplicant removed support for fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant since over a year (starting with wpa_supplicant 2.8):

commit 6a8dee76d4090287c016680c009b1334e01b5fbd
Author: Lubomir Rintel <lkundrak@v3.sk>
Date:   Tue Feb 26 12:04:36 2019 +0100

    wpa_supplicant: Drop the old D-Bus interface support
    
    This drops support for the fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant D-Bus name
    along with the associated CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE_DBUS option. Nothing should
    really be using this since 2010.

wicked is using this interface which means it is impossible to manage wireless interface with wicked in current TW - it fails to talk with wpa_supplicant. The correct name is fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.
