Description:

Upgrade to openconnect 3.01-1 breaks compatibility with networkmanager-openconnect / nm-applet.

After upgrading to 3.01, when I try to access my openconnect VPN via the nm-applet the applet gives me the following error message:

There was a problem launching the authentication dialog for VPN connection type 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openconnect'. Contact your system administrator.

Downgrading back to v2.26 fixes the problem.


Issue seems to be that the upgraded package omits /usr/lib/networkmanager/nm-openconnect-auth-dialog . (Or perhaps the issue is the reference to that dialog executable in /etc/NetworkManager/VPN/nm-openconnect-service.name, owned by networkmanager-openconnect?)
This task depends upon

Ack! I hit submit without filling out the subject properly. Doesn't seem like I've got privs to fix this. Can someone with privs please update it?

/usr/lib/networkmanager/nm-openconnect-auth-dialog was dropped in that version because networkmanager-openconnect has its own version.

i guess is working with newer versions?

Ionut: I see that networkmanager-openconnect has been flagged as out of date, and that you're the maintainer for that package. Do you know if the 0.8.3 version of nm-openconnect fixes this incompatibility? If so, any idea when it might be possible to get a new version of that package?

FYI - it looks like the nm-openconnect-service.name file in networkmanager-openconnect 0.8.3 is still referencing that dialog:

[darose@daroselin networkmanager-openconnect]$ cat src/NetworkManager-openconnect-0.8.3.995/nm-openconnect-service.name
[VPN Connection]
name=openconnect
service=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openconnect
program=/usr/lib/networkmanager/nm-openconnect-service

[GNOME]
auth-dialog=nm-openconnect-auth-dialog
properties=libnm-openconnect-properties
