Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager-pptp
After installing network-manager-pptp I cannot connect to a VPN because
the NetworkManager doesn't allow VPN connections on statically
configured interfaces.
This doesn't makes any sense since it is completely fine to use a VPN
having a static IP. network-manager-pptp should allow VPN connections
for those cases aswell.
Just to make it clearer: the interface cannot be configured through
DHCP, because the ISP provides a fixed IP. Trying to set the interface
to roaming mode breaks the whole connectivity. Same happens on any non-
DHCP enabled networks.
** Affects: network-manager-pptp (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
