Hi

As already reported in https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1028302.html
NetworkManager can give an unclear message when updated. Here's with v1.0.12:

* Messages for package net-misc/networkmanager-1.0.12:

 * You have psk-flags=1 setting in above files, you will need to
 * either reconfigure affected networks or, at least, set the flag
 * value to '0'.

Would be great either to give the main directory where to look at, or list the bad files where the option exists?

Cheers.

I want to add a relevant comment to this bug report.

I've been using the stable network manager and created couple new wireless access profiles (xxx1/xxx2) few weeks ago. After a recent upgrade to 1.0.12-r1 I received yet another warning:

//etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/xxx1:psk-flags=1
//etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/xxx2:psk-flags=1

It looks like that network manager creates new profiles with this flag itself and then complains about it.

Could you fix it?

Thank you.
