Title:
  Wifi password not copied to new install since netplan transition

Status in ubuntu-desktop-installer:
  Fix Released
Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This is related to bug 2036999 except this is for the new Ubuntu
  Desktop Installer and the other bug is for Ubiquity ("legacy"
  installer)

  What happened?
  ==============
  If a Wifi password is provided during the install, the Wifi network is supposed to be preconfigured with that password after install. It's not working with Ubuntu 23.10.

  Steps to reproduce
  ==================
  Use the new Ubuntu Desktop installer to install Ubuntu 23.10 from a computer that has a wifi card
  During the install, connect to a password-protected wifi network
  After the install, the computer should be automatically connected to that network

  Additional context
  ==================
  20230920 Ubuntu Desktop Mantic ISO

  Ubuntu Desktop 23.10 now uses Netplan as the NetworkManager backend.

  I do have a /etc/netplan/90-NM-{redacted-UUID}.yaml file which has the
  network listed but it doesn't seem to have the password saved.

  wifi-security.auth-alg: "open" does not sound right to me.

  network:
    version: 2
    wifis
      NM-{redacted-UUID}:
        renderer: NetworkManager
        match:
          name: "wlp2s0"
        dhcp4: true
        dhcp6: true
        access-points:
          "{redacted Access Point name}":
            auth:
              key-management: "psk"
            networkmanager:
              uuid: "{redacted-UUID}"
              name: "{redacted Access Point name}"
              passthrough:
                wifi-security.auth-alg: "open"
                ipv6.addr-gen-mode: "default"
                ipv6.ip6-privacy: "-1"
                proxy._: ""
        networkmanager:
          uuid: "{redacted-UUID}"
           name: "{redacted Access Point name}"
