Description schlaffi 2013-07-17 22:20:29 UTC
Description of problem:
despite gnome-keyring is working and contains the relevant passwords, nm-applet asks at my GSM login either for the pin or the password. For each restart it alternates between the two.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
network-manager-applet-0.9.8.2-1.fc19.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.login
2.connect with GSM
3.get PIN prompt
4.restart
5.get password prompt
...

Actual results:
unnecessary prompts

Expected results:
no prompts as it used to be in earlier version (this bug is around for a while, also in fc18, but not for 0.9.7.0)

Additional info:

I know that not everybody has a 3G modem, so it may be difficult to reproduce. I also posted this issue at another password bug (Bug 906278)  for nm-applet, but I think it never got noticed.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 18:58:42 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2015-02-17 16:13:18 UTC
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
