Description Ruediger Meier 2014-05-09 12:28:59 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0

For no reason wpa_supplicant is running on all our desktops even though they don't have wireless NICs and no wlan setup.

It shouldn't be installed per default and not enabled per default.

Reproducible: Always

To my knowledge this has been fixed in Factory by switching to a systemd service, which is properly dbus activated.
Comment 2 Ruediger Meier 2014-10-23 11:51:58 UTC
This bug is still not fixed for openSUSE 13.1.

Yesterday's update of wpa_supplicant even recreated
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/wpa_supplicant.service
which I had manually deleted.

After reboot /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant was running again for no reason.

This version of openSUSE changed to end-of-life (EOL [1]) status. As such
it is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any
further security or bug fix updates.
As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
openSUSE, or consider the bug still valid, please feel free to reopen this
bug against that version, or open a new ticket.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed
during the lifetime of the release.
