Description:
My hostapd configuration file was lost after a system upgrade. It seems the package is blindly overriding every file in /etc/hostapd. IMHO it should create a pacnew file whenever necessary.

Additional info:
* 0.6.10-1, 0.6.9-2

Before upgrade
fb46789c9658026287157bee874c639a /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
After upgrade
90b87de22d432cfff0af8474acdbb666 /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf

Steps to reproduce:
- Just upgrade hostap to 0.6.10 or downgrade to 0.6.9
This task depends upon
