Details

Description:

wpa_supplicant systemd service uses wlan0 interface name for any parameter value:

[Install]
Alias=multi-user.target.wants/wpa_supplicant@wlan0.service

Instead:

[Install]
Alias=multi-user.target.wants/wpa_supplicant@%i.service

Additional info:
* wpa_supplicant 2.0-4

Steps to reproduce:

Create system service for any interface:
> systemctl enable wpa_supplicant@wlp3s0

wpa_supplicant@wlan0.service will be generated in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants
instead of wpa_supplicant@wlp3s0.service

There is already a fix for git version of wpa_suplicant:

But it is not included yet into the upstream release package.
I think this commit can be added as patch into arch package.
This task depends upon
