Public bug reported:
When trying to connect to a new WPA-PSK encrypted network, I click in the
wireless icon and select the network I want to connect. Then the wireless icon
suffers a glitch, I'm not prompted a password, and I'm informed that I'm
offline.
There's the first time in 2 or 3 months that I tried to connect to a new
network.
Despite this, in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ there is the file
matching the network I tried to connect, without a psk=... item on it. Then I
edited it, put the password and could connect to the network like if I was
already connected to it.
