Just quilt :-) I'm working with various version control systems, so quilt is a versatile tool for me. But the patch could be applied without any problems?

You're right. I first tried 3.0 and it failed by some package, so I took 2.0 and didn't verify what was wrong. But I just checked the 3.0 version and it works with all 5 packages:

wpa_supplicant
iw
hostapd
kismet
ti-utils

We don't need it. I had a problem compiling it under Ubuntu without reconfiguring, but with buildroot under Ubuntu I have no problem.

Thanks for reviewing.

Best regards,
