Public bug reported:

It's not possible to connect to a WPA2-PSK WiFi using a 64 character
long Password. Neither in the network-managment nor in the Prompt (the
save/connect button is greyed out). The 802.11i reson which is always
quoted doesn't seem legit to me, since the exact same setup (& PW)
worked with mint15 & 17.1 (on the same laptop), Android devices and
Windows.

Thanks for your effort and best regards
Brodrian
