Hi Florian,

thank you for pointing me to the right bug report!

I checked the bug reports list via web [1] but did not link
wpa-supplicant to my issue since I did not realized that such an issue
also affects wired connections

yes, this is definitely an instance of #35550

I confirm I see the very same wpa_supplicant log messages in
/var/log/messages as reported by Sirgazil and pelzflorian

the following suggested workaround (in a text console activated via
CTRL-ALT-F3) works for me:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
pkill wpa_supplicant
herd start networking
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

after that I was able to restart the "Network interface" installer step
(by choosing "Exit" and selecting it again in the proposed dialog) and
was able to select the wired interface

Thanks! Gio'
