Description Davide Caratti 2018-01-16 22:01:53 UTC 
In current wpa_supplicant, the systemd service (wpa_supplicant.service) is
restarted every time the RPM package is updated, because of the following
lines in the specfile:

%postun
%systemd_postun_with_restart wpa_supplicant.service

This generates a temporary disconnection during the package upgrade; such
disconnection is (almost) immediately recovered when the interface is
managed by an external daemon, like NetworkManager or systemd-networkd.
On the other hand, there are situations where the connectivity is not repaired after RPM upgrade until manual intervention. Similar problems have been fixed on other packages by simply removing the 'systemctl try-restart' command from the specfile in the %postun target.
