Title:
  ubiquity: Wifi password not copied to new install

Status in calamares package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This is related to bug 2036997 except this is for Ubiquity ("legacy"
  installer) and the other bug is for the new Ubuntu Desktop Installer

  What happened?
  ==============
  If a Wifi password is provided during the install, the Wifi network is supposed to be preconfigured with that password after install. It's not working with Ubuntu 23.10.

  Steps to reproduce
  ==================
  Use the new Ubuntu Desktop installer to install Ubuntu 23.10 from a computer that has a wifi card
  During the install, connect to a password-protected wifi network
  After the install, the computer should be automatically connected to that network

  Additional context
  ==================
  20230920 Ubuntu Desktop Legacy Mantic ISO

  Ubuntu Desktop 23.10 now uses Netplan as the NetworkManager backend.

  Unlike with bug 2036997, there is no netplan config file referencing
  the wifi network.
