Bug Description

Binary package hint: plasma-widget-networkmanagement

I have a wireless network set up, but the auto-connect option won't save.

Steps to reproduce:
 1 Click on the network plasma widget
 2 Click Manage Connections...
 3 Select existing wireless network
 4 Click Edit
 5 Select Connect automatically
 6 Click Ok
 7 Click Edit again

What happened?
  The Connect automatically checkbox is un-checked and the wireless connection does not connect automatically

Can we please have the package upgraded with the upstream fix?

Thanks.

This bug is only half fixed.

While the connection checkbox now remains checked, the connection still isn't automatically made.
