[Bug 789630] [NEW] "Network Connections" cannot configure a WiFi connection

[blue balls]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace

  I try to configure a WiFi connection using the "Network Connections"
applet from KDE "System Settings".

  The problem appears from the start: when I ask the applet to scan for
ESSIDS, it shows me no ESSIDS. Therefore I cannot select the one I want
and I cannot create the WiFi connection.

  I can list the available wireless networks using "iwlist scanning": the ESSID of my access point is correctly shown.
However the KDE applet doesn't show any ESSID.
