Package: network-manager-openvpn-gnome Version: 1.2.0-1 Severity: important
Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Clicking "Configure VPN" in the nm-applet, opens the "Connection Editor" clicking the add button displays a window to choose Connection Type, OpenVPN options are not listed. In terminal, the following output is displayed: ** (nm-connection-editor:4074): WARNING **: vpn: (openvpn,/usr/lib/NetworkManager/VPN/nm-openvpn-service.name) could not load plugin: path is not absolute (libnm-vpn-plugin-openvpn.so) * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Looking at the file (/usr/lib/NetworkManager/VPN/nm-openvpn-service.name) and comparing it to the old version installed with (network-manager-openvpn- gnome_1.1.93-1_amd64.deb) it seems lines #8 & #12 have changed which looks like the cause of the plugin not being loaded. Old lines: #8 plugin=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-vpn-plugin-openvpn.so #12 properties=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/NetworkManager/libnm-openvpn- properties New lines from package (network-manager-openvpn_1.2.0-1_amd64.deb) #8 plugin=libnm-vpn-plugin-openvpn.so #12 properties=libnm-openvpn-properties * What was the outcome of this action? Changing the 2 lines back to the old lines then opening the Connection Editor, makes the option to create/import a openvpn config display. ## First time reporting a bug for Debian, so apologies in advance ;) -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.5.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages network-manager-openvpn-gnome depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 2.20.0-1 ii libc6 2.22-7 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.14.6-1+b1 ii libcairo2 1.14.6-1+b1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.10.8-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.106-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.34.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.48.0-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.20.3-1 ii libnm-glib-vpn1 1.1.94-1 ii libnm-glib4 1.1.94-1 ii libnm-gtk0 1.2.0-1 ii libnm-util2 1.1.94-1 ii libnm0 1.1.94-1 ii libnma0 1.2.0-1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.40.1-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.40.1-1 ii libsecret-1-0 0.18.5-1 ii network-manager-openvpn 1.2.0-1 network-manager-openvpn-gnome recommends no packages. network-manager-openvpn-gnome suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
