[SOLVED]networkmanager segfault with new, secured wlan

Hi,
i did not connect to new wlan routers for a while, and since last time the nm-applet quits with a segmentation fault.
Here is what i do:
$ nm-applet
Choose new network from the list in the applet:

** Message: applet now embedded in the notification area
** Message: Remote error from secret service: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files
** Message: Remote error from secret service: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped)  nm-applet

I can succesfully connect to my own wlan router, that has a password, without entering it.
Ideally for new wlan routers, nm-applet should ask for the password instead of a segfault.

EDIT: Solved by installing gnome-keyring.

I have the same problem. But installing gnome-keyring didn't solve it for me.

For anyone still having the same problem: you might still have to enable the gnome-keyring to start.
The wiki has a good part about it.
