For me, downloading the packages from the following fixed the problem:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/NetworkManager-0.9.1.90-3.git20110927.fc15

Not sure if it has hit updates-testing yet....

My problem is not this crash.

I simply don't get prompted for an access point's password. I don't think that my nm-applet crashes, as this bug is reporting, if it crashed I'd expect my abrt to be squawking about it.

I just don't get the password prompt.
