Dear Gustavo Zacarias,

Hum, so, Jean-Baptiste patch is adding CONFIG_DRIVER_NL80211 to the
configuration when libnl is available. But the current
wpa_supplicant.mk does (after removing the static lib special case)

ifeq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_LIBNL),y)
        WPA_SUPPLICANT_DEPENDENCIES += libnl
        WPA_SUPPLICANT_CONFIG_ENABLE += CONFIG_LIBNL32
else
        WPA_SUPPLICANT_CONFIG_DISABLE += CONFIG_DRIVER_NL80211
endif

So it enables CONFIG_LIBNL32 when libnl is used. Which is not exactly
the same thing. But interesting, in the else case, it's
CONFIG_DRIVER_NL80211 that gets disabled.

I'm a bit confused :)

Thanks,

Thomas
