That's odd, I never had any trouble with it (and damn me, I installed it
3 times in a row when I started) and with different configurations "man
wpa_supplicant.conf" always helped me when I needed it (I don't use the
CLI).

The upside is that one only needs to configure any network once, then I
can copy the details to all systems as needed. Works across various
distros. Also, when people ask you the passphrase just do "grep -A2
network_name wpa_supplicant.conf".

And now dhcpcd even starts wpa_supplicant on its own! It's amazing!

Just my 2 cents worth of experience,
