Public bug reported: Release: vivid (fresh install) Packages: network-manager 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu34 network-manager-pptp 0.9.8.2-1ubuntu2 network-manager-pptp-gnome 0.9.8.2-1ubuntu2
After installing network-manager-pptp-gnome, it is not possible to add a PPTP VPN from the networkmanager GUI. What I expected to happen: Network -> Add Network Connection -> VPN -> Select PPTP and configure with GUI What happened: Network -> Add Network Connection -> VPN pptp is not listed as a possible VPN type. Cannot graphically configure VPN. Possible cause: Copying an existing VPN configuration to /etc/NetworkManager/system- connections results in a VPN which does work. The option to add a new one is possibly because of a missing file: /etc/NetworkManager/VPN/nm-pptp-service.name includes: [GNOME] properties=/usr/lib/NetworkManager/libnm-pptp-properties which does not exist after installing the above packages. ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: network-manager-pptp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: network-manager-pptp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Package changed: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) => network-manager (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1413963 Title: network manager cannot configure pptp VPN Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Status in network-manager-pptp package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Release: vivid (fresh install) Packages: network-manager 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu34 network-manager-pptp 0.9.8.2-1ubuntu2 network-manager-pptp-gnome 0.9.8.2-1ubuntu2 After installing network-manager-pptp-gnome, it is not possible to add a PPTP VPN from the networkmanager GUI.
