Arch Linux

Description:
After the update to networkmanager 1.0.6-1 and networkmanager-openvpn 1.0.6-1, openvpn vpn connections do not work.

The output of journalctl says:
Ago 27 22:34:33 arch64 NetworkManager[570]: <info> Starting VPN service 'openvpn'...
Ago 27 22:34:33 arch64 NetworkManager[570]: <info> VPN service 'openvpn' started (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn), PID 1323

Ago 27 22:34:33 arch64 NetworkManager[570]: <info> VPN connection 'My VPN' (ConnectInteractive) reply received.
Ago 27 22:34:33 arch64 NetworkManager[570]: <warn> VPN connection 'My VPN' failed to connect interactively: 'User 'nm-openvpn' not found, check NM_OPENVPN_USER.'.
Ago 27 22:34:33 arch64 NetworkManager[570]: <warn> error disconnecting VPN: Could not process the request because no VPN connection was active.
Ago 27 22:34:53 arch64 NetworkManager[570]: <info> VPN service 'openvpn' disappeared

This seems to point either to a missing username that should be created when installing networkmanager-openvpn or a missing environment variable defined somewhere (maybe /etc/profile.d ?, I have never tested if stuff there affects the environment of services). It is probable that a group is also missing, but that may be masked because the connection is aborted on the first error.

Searching on google for NM_OPENVPN_USER returns this [1] and this forum thread [2].

Additional info:
networkmanager 1.0.6-1
networkmanager-openvpn 1.0.6-1


Steps to reproduce:
Update system and make sure networkmanager 1.0.6-1 and networkmanager-openvpn 1.0.6-1 are installed.
Try to connect to any openvpn VPN .
