similar reports, the code also changed quite a lot since and it's likely
the issue doesn't exist anymore. Closing, feel free to open a new report

Title:
Unable to connect to VPN while on a network connection that is not
managed by network manager
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I needed to use my network connection before login, so I had to
disable it in network manager and set it up using
/etc/network/interfaces instead. However, I would still like to use
VPN connections which I have already stored in Network Manager. But as
I have tried to do it, "something" crashed. Ubuntu error reporting
says it was gnome-control-center, I don't know, haven't looked much
into it.
Apparently, there is a problem with activating VPN connections in
network manager while not being connected to any network via network
manager (but of course, being connected to some network using other
methods). The fact that it is not possible is ridiculous. Why? The VPN
connection itself should only be dependent on whether the underlying
interface is connected to some network or not... There should be no
ties with network-manager-specific status of connections regarding
this interface. It is absolutely irrelevant.
