The 10_wpa_supplicant hook is not working for me with this version. Here
is a link to a discussion of the issue.

My posts are under the name hpmachining. It appears that the variable
ifwireless is always 0 now when the hook is run, causing the hook to
exit without running the wpa_supplicant command.

Last commit that works for me:

Also, if I add --disable-privsep to configuration the hook works.

Here is a link to the Arch package information, with all the configure
options and service files:
