Comment 5 for bug 310130

Unfortunately I couldn't wait much longer and so I wiped my installation and started from scratch. That seemed to fix it. This seems to stem from the problem if configuration files that the wifi manager is dependent on are deleted. I know the obvious answer is to reinstall the package that adds those configuration files but since I don't know what package provides that, I wasn't able to do that. Now perhaps if I knew what configuration files were missing, I could look up the package that provides them, but that seems tedious.

It be nice if wifi manager and possibly the OS itself can automatically check the format of all configuration files and if any are missing, replace them automatically. That to the end user seems to be so much easier then having to look for the package that provides those files.

So you can close this since I can't seem to reproduce it anymore.
