Presumably because right now we can't guarantee that the package is named
"openvpn" on every distro.

To make this work, we would need a way for distros to communicate to us what
the name of the package is for them, perhaps via a CMake variable that they
would have to set or override (if it defaulted to being "openvpn"). If we did
that, it would be feasible to have plasma-nm use PackageKit to install it for
you.
