[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#681878: network-manager-gnome: nm-applet repeatedly forgets passwords when trying to reconnect to WIFI network

[Florian]

Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 0.9.4.1-1+b1
Severity: normal

The WIFI password is saved in the login keyring. Somehow nm-applet
seems to not reliably read the keyring entry. Various different
behaviours are possible:
- Everything works, when a WIFI with saved PW (re)appears, it is automatically
  connected
- When a WIFI (re)appears, a PW dialog is shown with the PW already filled. This PW dialog
  might be an old-style one or a new, gnome3 dialog (this is similar to #651097, only that 
  it might be that there appears only one of both, most of the time the old one)
- When a WIFI (re)appears, a PW dialog appear with no PW filled.

For unstable WIFI connections this can be very annoying, and it also happens frequently after
booting.

This is not #578587 supposedly because it does not happen every time.

Thanks for your work,

Florian
