[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#646018: network-manager-gnome: forgets wireless key if a connection is lost

Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 0.9.0-2
Severity: normal

The wireless driver keeps dropping the network connection (nothing to do 
with this bug). When the network manager applet tries to re-establish 
the connection, a pop-up window appears asking for the key. The first 
time this happens the existing key is offered.  If the connection still 
fails the next time the pop-up window appears the key has been deleted. 
  If I click "Cancel" in the pop-up window the first and each subsequent 
time, and then click on the network manager applet in the panel, I can 
select my network and re-connect (maybe after several goes) without 
being prompted for a key.
