The release notes talk about:
In the spec file of NetworkManager-0.7.0-3.el5
Requires: wpa_supplicant >= 0.5.7-21
should be
Requires: wpa_supplicant >= 1:0.5.7-21
But what I see being updated is:
1:0.5.10-8.el5
So at a guess, I'd say that wpa_supplicant has been updated since this
release note, and that the spec file is still wrong. But wpa_supplicant
IS being updated, ergo this is just an install process error.
Thanks Ralph.
