You are entirely right that the filename usually is foo_git.bb, but
there would be something like PV = "x.y.z+git" inside.
This is to ensure upgrade paths from e.g. 0.7.3 to the 0.8rc and 0.8
final release. If I have '0.7.3' installed, upgrading to 'git' is no
problem, but going from 'git' to '0.8.0' would be, since 'git' will sort
higher.
I'm not into wpa-supplicant release versioning, so I don't have the
right solution, but something like

PV = "0.7.3+0.8rc"
PR_append = "gitr${SRCPV}"

should work.

regards,

Koen
