linux-wifi-hotspot (5.0.0) noble; urgency=medium

  * create_ap: follow the station's channel on adapters that only advertise AP
    mode in a single-channel interface combination, which iwlwifi has done
    since Linux 6.11. Fixes hotspot creation failing with hostapd's
    "Failed to set beacon parameters" (GH #435, #472, #344)
  * create_ap: normalise FREQ_BAND=default so a generated config no longer
    silently moves the hotspot to 5GHz channel 36
  * create_ap: stop falling back to an empty channel when the adapter is not
    associated (GH #206)
  * create_ap: explain when a self-managed regulatory domain makes 5GHz
    unusable instead of only reporting the channel as unavailable
  * create_ap: configure the VHT channel width, so --ieee80211ac can reach
    80MHz instead of stopping at 40MHz; adds --vht-chwidth
  * create_ap: derive the HT40 secondary channel direction from the operating
    channel rather than assuming [HT40+]
  * create_ap: warn when clients never complete the WPA handshake
  * create_ap: only refuse virtual interfaces on SDIO brcmfmac adapters
  * create_ap: prevent --mkconfig from overwriting arbitrary files
  * create_ap: fix a root file read vulnerability
  * create_ap: add --dhcp-hosts for static DHCP assignments
  * create_ap: move the haveged watchdog mutex inside the guarding logic
  * create_ap: use a portable shebang
  * gui: show the full create_ap log in a scrollable view instead of only the
    last line
  * gui: report create_ap errors instead of failing silently
  * gui: stop passing "--freq-band default", which pinned the hotspot to
    2.4GHz regardless of the selected band
  * gui: preselect the WiFi and Internet interfaces so hotspot creation works
    out of the box
  * gui: fix crashes parsing /etc/create_ap.conf (NULL dereference and buffer
    overflow)
  * gui: wait for create_ap to exit after AP-ENABLED
  * gui: tweak the IEEE 802.11n/ac/ax styling and fix build errors
  * docs: add a guide and helper scripts for 5GHz hotspots on Intel adapters
