Seems there is still another aspect to this, resulting in it still being unfixed for the Kubuntu Live session.
casper runs in scripts/casper-bottom/34disable_kde_services rm -f /root/usr/share/kde4/services/kwalletd.desktop rm -f /root/usr/share/kservices5/kwalletd5.desktop rm -f /root/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.kde.kwalletd5.service rm -f /root/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.kde.kwalletd.service which was done in 2015 to stop kwallet dunning in the live session completely. This sadly now has the consequence that plasma-nm sees no actual written config disabling kwalllet, but maybe simply fails to access it thinking it should be available, then falls back to the password with network manager. Hence possibly the double password request. Since 2016 releases of plasma 5.7.x the change "Store password into NetworkManager by default when KWallet is not enabled" enables fallback to network manager, but seemingly only when plasma-nm knows kwallet is disabled by config, not when it has been just broken by casper. So one possible solution could be to leave kwallet's files in place, but write a temp config file 'kwalletrc' for just the live session disabling kwallet, so plasma-nm knows to not use it, hence using a working route first time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1572244 Title: Kubuntu requires that the WiFi password be entered twice before WiFi can be used Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in plasma-nm package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Kubuntu 16.04 ISO number 20160417.1 Xenial Final Bug reported against network-manager Every time I tried the live Kubuntu 16.04 image on a Lenovo t420 laptop it requires to enter the wifi password twice before I can use the wifi. Once from the network icon panel, then second time a prompt on the desktop to enter the wifi password. I do not know if this is typical behavior of Kubuntu since I usually use GTK base desktops. I guess network-manager is the right package to file this report against.
