Package: hostapd
Version: 1:0.6.10-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Running kernel 2.6.32.8 together with the above hostapd version worked
just fine but after I've updated the kernel from 2.6.32.8 to 2.6.33
(both from kernel.org) hostapd does not start any more.

Hi everyone, I tried linux kernel 2.6.33 with hostapd both 0.6.9-3 and 0.6.10-1, and they don't work. So it's not restricted to 0.6.10-2. Regards, Lee

I've encountered the exact same errors with Linux 2.6.33.1, and solved
them by compiling the kernel with CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT=y ("cfg80211
wireless extensions compatibility"). Probably this used to be tacit
and now they've made it an option defaulting to no. This could
arguably be better documented.
Hope this helps,
