[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1174648] Re: network settings, vpn modules don't load.
Nevermind my last comment. It appears that "someone else" had replaced the original packages with the ones from the gnome3-team/gnome3 ppa, and those did need the mentioned workaround. The VPN indicator also seems to have been fixed by rolling back the packages and the workaround. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1174648 Title: network settings, vpn modules don't load.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1174648] Re: network settings, vpn modules don't load.
I can confirm that on Ubuntu Saucy with gnome-control- center-3.8.5-0ubuntu1~saucy the problem persists. A workaround was to hard-link the files to the correct location (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux- gnu/NetworkManager/) from the installation location from the plugin packages (/usr/lib/NetworkManager/). Of note: I'm not using Unity - I'm using gnome-shell. Another secondary issue is that the VPN indicator for an OpenConnect VPN on the NetworkManager drop-down doesn't accurately reflect the status of the VPN. The full dialog from Network Settings does reflect it accurately, and allow control over the link. As a result, the NM icon on the notification bar remains as a lock (i.e. indicating the VPN is on) regardless of the actual status. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1174648 Title: network settings, vpn modules don't load.
