Hello Steve,
I don't know any reason, might be a mistake.
Please enable the option.

Regards,
Cristian

Subject: [OE-core] [RFC] wpa-supplicant - enable CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE_DBUS_NEW in config

I've begun using Yocto 1.5 (dora) for several client projects over the past few weeks.

I noticed that images that included connman and wpa-supplicant always failed to enable the wifi technology properly.  The visible error indication in the log:

src/technology.c:technology_get() No matching drivers found for wifi

After many hours of debugging I finally figured out that this was due to a missing option in wpa-supplicant (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE_DBUS_NEW)

Adding a bbappend for wpa-supplicant with this option enabled fixed the issue and connman now handles wifi interfaces as expected.

Was there a particular reason CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE_DBUS_NEW wasn't enabled?

Steve
