            Bug ID: 277817
           Summary: sysutils/pc-networkmanager: does not add
                    `key_mgmt=NONE` field to wpa_supplicant.conf entries
                    to unsecured wifi points

On this FreeBSD machine, wpa_supplicant.conf needs `key_mgmt=NONE` added to
unsecured network entries to connect. pc-netmanager seems to always use
wpa_supplicant to connect to any open network on this machine. 

I would be willing to write and attach a .patch fixing this, but I noticed the
upstream repo has been archived for a long hot minute.. do you guys on FreeBSD
carry .patch's in the ports tree? Or would you perhaps be willing to fork
upstream?

I'm not really a FreeBSD user or know much about it, excuse my ignorance here.
Also how networking is handled here confuses the bajeezles out of me... ( I
miss linux's networkmanager :[ )
