Ubuntu script is missing network-manager-openvpn-gnome dependency
Opened this issue · 4 comments
The package network-manager-openvpn-gnome is missing.
Otherwise the error message Could not find vpn plugin service for 'org.freedesktop.networkmanager.openvpn' is being displayed and the connection fails.
Thanks for the report. What specific OS and version are you using?
Plain and simple Ubuntu 16.04. Sorry, forgot to mention that in my initial post.
Hi torpet, I just downloaded the latest vanilla Ubuntu 16.04, installed it in a virtual machine, ran sudo apt update, then ran the configuration script (sudo sh install_ubuntu.sh) and was unable to reproduce the error you are describing. In other words, in my test the configuration script ran fine without the additional network-manager-openvpn-gnome package.
I'm not sure why you are experiencing that error... It seems there was some funny business going on with the network-manager-openvpn package (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/1574576)-- I am wondering if it was for some reason temporarily unavailable in the repos, yet network-manager-openvpn-gnome was available?
It works fine now without network-manager-openvpn-gnome, which is weird.
I have checked multiple times including reboots before posting this bug report.
