that said, i am not convinced that we should install all vpn plugins
that exist by default. pptp is a exception as some users seem to need
that to get online for their provider. so its a bootstrapping thing
there. the others could just be installed on-demand using somewizard or
something if you go
In some environments the others are bootstrapping things as well. I can't
imagine my school is the only one that requires vpnc to get online. I usually
would sneakernet the debs from a Windows computer in the library to get up and
running when I lived on campus.

Actually my college requires openvpn to connect. Otherwise one has to
dual-boot to Windows or ask a friend to download the packages.

Given that what prevents this being fixed is the need for a set of developers
willing to own these package and their bugs...I'm not sure how much of a
papercut that is.

This requires, at a minimum to follow the bug description, to let the
users know that additional packages are required. I see inclusion by
default more like a second phase.

It is still not trivial to configure L2TP connection in 9.04 with users
reporting that 8.04 scripts stopped working with new release. Just
reinforces the idea that things do get broken from one release to
another. We really need to do something about this as more and more ISPs
move to L2TP
I already did contribute some changes and fixes upstream, and I try to
help out on the bugs on network-manager when I have a chance... That
said, I'll bring up the issue on the upstream mailing list (if it isn't
there already) and see what needs to be done to put the VPN plugins into

I filed bug 370210 for the specific (hopefully small) GUI change of just
explaining in the dialog *why* the controls are greyed out, as requested

Take your rant elsewhere. We're not upstream for this plugin. If you think
there are improvements to be made, I'm sure the upstream developers will
welcome your patches when you've had time to prepare them.
However, you did just show a reason for this plugin to NOT be included by
default by
Alexander Sack said above that getting these into main and then default could
be difficult because they are not as actively developed as Network Manager
itself, so we could end up stuck with an old NM because of the plugins not
being caught up.
The alternative would be if someone could step
the theory is good, but in practice its not easy to hack those plugins
together unless you did a certain amount of network-manager upstream
development. The right way to move forward would be to get involved
upstream with development of plugins and then once we see that we have
all the know-how

Just a quick note: I agree that this bug should be fixed or if not, the
dialogue fixed so that it's not totally confusing about why it's greyed
out, but if this is changed before Jaunty release it will require a
change to documentation.
The bug is currently targetted to beta: if that's to be
dropping the milestone here; these packages have yet to go through an
MIR process, they appear to be some distance from being installed by
default, and this isn't a blocker for jaunty.
