[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#525330: Bug#525330: network-manager: WPA to WPA2, must remove the stored keys for the ssid

[jaime]

Hello,

I'm no longer using GNOME, I'm using KDE for over a year now. But I
guess I still can do a test from here, is the same NetworkManager.
Currently I'm using Debian wheezy.

I'm due to update my router to the last version of OpenWRT so I'll
take this as an oportunity to kill two birds with the same stone.

However I'm very busy right now so it will take a few days before I
can run the test.

Hope you can wait before closing this bug.

Thanks.
