Hi all,

I was trying to add a WPA/WPA2 Enterprise (PEAP w/ CA cert) network via
nm-connection-editor. However, each time I finished the form and clicked
"Save," nm-connection-editor would crash and the network would consequently
not be saved.

Invoking nm-connection-editor from the command line and repeating these
steps gave the informative error message:

```
(nm-connection-editor:1751): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 02:02:58.502: Settings
schema 'org.gnome.nm-applet.eap' is not installed
Trace/breakpoint trap
```

I found a fix via the installation of libnma, thanks to a 2012 thread on
LinuxQuestions.org:
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/network-manager-applet-1-16-0-i586-1-package-is-missing-%27org-gnome-nm-applet%27-schema-4175670946/.
After the installation of libnma I was able to successfully add the network.

I understand libnma is already a dependency of nm-connection-editor. I do
not know enough to say why it has to be additionally installed separately,
but I hope someone else does. The steps to reproduce is in the first
paragraph above.

Best regards,
Ning

I experienced this problem just today and your bug report was helpful!

Actually, both libnma and network-manager-applet provide the relevant
schema file, but they’re different:

The one in libnma has the extra “.eap” thing.

The attached hack works, but it looks like something’s wrong, maybe
related to <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/62513>?

I've reverted to the previously working version on master, but we should
figure out what's up with this change in recent releases.  It may affect
1.42 as well (which is supposedly the current stable release).

Leaving this open.  Thanks for investigating.

The patchset I sent in [1] should resolve this, I've been happily
running with it.
