Ubuntu does not yet install a systemd-ask-password agent. It seems
openvpn went too much ahead and is relying on this without checking
whether a password agent is running.

** Package changed: systemd (Ubuntu) => openvpn (Ubuntu)

** Summary changed:

- OpenVPN doesnt ask for pkcs12 password
+ OpenVPN interactively asks for a password in an init script

Title:
  OpenVPN interactively asks for a password in an init script

Status in “openvpn” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi All,

  today I have upgraded my Kubuntu client to Utopic, 
  and now OpenVPN doesen't ask me for my "pkcs12" password

  I start it via init.d script as root

    root@client:~# /etc/init.d/openvpn start CLIENT1
    * Starting virtual private network daemon(s)...
    *   Starting VPN 'CLIENT1'
    Timed out

  and in the processlist I found, the "systemd-ask-password" ask for fhe 
password
  but there is no popup or other password ask dialog
