Hello Problem still exists in Fedora 24 iw-4.1-2.fc24.x86_64 Thank you
waiting for 4.9 bug#1264883
Please try the 4.9 update and see if it helps. F25: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-d2cb5f8421 F24: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-5c832471ff
Hello Package iw-4.9-1.fc24.x86_64 is already installed, skipping. Dependencies resolved. Nothing to do. Complete! If I do: ~]$ sudo iw dev wlp3s0 scan ssid "OFFICE ONE" | grep "SSID" I see a list of SSID which includes more than just "OFFICE ONE" I also tried: ~]$ sudo iw dev wlp3s0 scan ssid OFFICE\ ONE | grep "SSID" same result, SSID output list shows the search output is not restricted to the search term. Thank you
Also, if you pass "freq" with a single frequency it still scans ALL frequencies and ALL SSIDs. Either iw is broken or libnl3 is broken. When I did a quick debug of iw it looked like it was parsing the command line correctly. I don't have any experience with libnl3 and I don't know where/how to contact upstream for iw as they don't have public mailing list that I know of.
Fedora 25, iw version 4.9. The same problem.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 27 development cycle. Changing version to '27'.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life. On 2018-Nov-30 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '27'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 27 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
