wpa_supplicant: /sbin/wpa_supplicant daemon failed to start



Hello,
(I use wheezy xfce)
I'm not subscribed to debian-user but I have a problem that looks like a 
bug but I do not know which package is concerned.
After last upgrade I get this message at boot time:

-------------------------------------8<-------------------------------------
Listening on LPF/wlan0/00:19:7d:02:46:aa
Sending on   LPF/wlan0/00:19:7d:02:46:aa
Sending on   Socket/fallback
DHCPRELEASE on wlan0 to 192.168.0.254 port 67
wpa_supplicant: /sbin/wpa_supplicant daemon failed to start
run-parts: /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/wpasupplicant exited with return code 1

-------------------------------------8<-------------------------------------
DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6
receive_packet failed on wlan0: Network is down
-------------------------------------8<-------------------------------------

however wicd works fine.

on another machine with the same config (wheezy xfce) not upgraded 
the problem does not occur and wpasupplicant (wlan0) works fine.

On the two machines there is the same version of wpasupplicant:
apt-cache policy wpasupplicant
wpasupplicant:
  Installed : 1.0-3+b1
  Candidat : 1.0-3+b1

Thank you for advice.
