Yes. > It might be easier to just change gnome-shell to look for the > vpn-auth-dialogs in /usr/lib/NetworkManager instead of Config.LIBEXECDIR > (which expands to /usr/lib/gnome-shell). True enough. That was how I was looking at it until I ran across the upstream bug report. Solving it that way is slightly more coordination now, but it's future-proof and less coordination later. If you all decide hardcoding gnome-shell to /usr/lib/NetworkManager is the best for wheezy, that's fine too. -- mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
