** Description changed: ISO testing 20.04 Kubuntu daily image (20200323). Something involving Kwallet & wifi is installed differently depending on whether I take the - path "try it" (and install from Live desktop), or "install now." + path "Try it" (install from Live desktop), or "Install now." - 1. When I install from the Live Desktop (after clicking "try it," and - then reboot the installed system, wifi doesn't automatically connect (as - other Ubuntu desktop flavors do after wifi was used during the install). - I have to manually connect, at which point Kwallet makes me set up a - password (with no indication a null password is acceptable). + 1.
