The updated package worked for me too, but not *exactly* as expected.
1.) I updated the package and then rebooted.
2.) I then clicked on the network manager and then clicked on my network
3.) I entered in all of the secret info and clicked okay
4.) It then said that it was connecting
5.) Another window came up asking for my secret info again
6.) It didn't remember anything I typed so I typed it all again
7.) After I typed my secret info, the same window came up asking for the
details again.
8.) Before I was able to enter in the details, I got a message saying
that I was connected
In my opinion, the goal now is to make it only ask for the wireless info
ONCE. When the second and subsequent windows come up asking for the
data, it makes the user think they entered in the data wrong, even
though they didn't. At least I'm connected though!
