Hi Freddie,

I'm also glad to see I'm not the only one who doesn't like it, especially when 
it comes to breaking working setups on upgrade. Could you please tell your 
opinion to the Pkg-wpa-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org list as well. At the 
moment I'm mostly alone in expressing my dissent.

If you're interested in the discussion that's currently going on there, here's 
the archive:

Kind regards,

Felix
