Description Jim Taylor 2020-03-21 20:29:44 UTC 
My wlan0 no longer starts automatically on boot after the patch that upgraded wpa_supplicant to 2.6-lp151.5.3.1-x86_64.  After I log in I can start it with "wicked ifup wlan0".  If I downgrade wpa_supplicant back down to 2.6-lp151.4.4.x86_64 my wlan0 starts on boot a before.  The following is logged on boot:
