Package: libkf5networkmanagerqt6
Version: 5.25.0-1
Severity: important
File: networkmanager
Dear Maintainer,
Updating nm breaks its ability to connect to Wifi networks.
I am using a broadcom chip with the firmware-sta-dkms package installed.
It worked well until I updated to 5.25.0-1 when, although it saw the
wifi networks around me, it cannot connect to them (log attached)
A work around is to disable mac address randomization as described in
[1]. However while using this work around, the plasma widget in the
system tray shows that the network is not connected (the icon is the blank
wifi symbol with a question mark), however it is actually connected and
working.
I do not know if the fix that has been committed upstream [2] solves
this second issue or not.
Thanks
