Hi Pali,

I'm sorry if I wasn't clear before. There is nothing related to cleven in my comment.

The /etc/reaver folder is used by reaver to have the db file and the session temporary stored. It creates inside this directory a file named by the mac address of the access point were it stores the pins it has tried. In the next try testing the same access point reaver can be instructed to continue from were it left before.

If the /etc/reaver does not exist it does not try to create it, but also doesn't save any logs or the successful output of the test.

I have seen that most makeinstall scripts for several distributions create it. For Maemo I thought it is better not to really store the folder under /etc/ (to avoid possible space issues) and therefore my proposal to put it in the user's folders and just link it.
