Package: network-manager-gnome Followup-For: Bug #784896 Dear Maintainer,
This only affects GNOME flashback, but not only VPN: The problem was that when I wanted to connect to a WiFi network (which was of course password protected) it started out by not picking up the passwords I had saved in my keyring. Instead it produced the following error: "(1) Creating object for path '/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/1' failed in libnm-glib." When I opened the network's profile, entered the password it did connect. Although only once. Second, when I wanted to connect a VPN profile, which was set to always ask the password, the applet didn't produce the dialog box in which I could enter the password required. I was not able to find any error related to this. Workaround: To resolve this I tried to install the network-manager-gnome package from unstable (1.0.0-3) and after I restarted my machine, presto! -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages network-manager-gnome depends on: ii dbus-x11 1.8.16-1 ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.22.0-1 ii gconf-service 3.2.6-3 ii gnome-icon-theme 3.12.0-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.14.0-1 ii libc6 2.19-18 ii libcairo2 1.14.0-2.1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.8.16-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.102-1 ii libgconf-2-4 3.2.6-3 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.31.1-2+b1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.42.1-1 ii libgnome-keyring0 3.12.0-1+b1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.14.5-1 ii libmm-glib0 1.4.0-1 ii libnm-glib-vpn1 0.9.10.0-7 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.10.0-7 ii libnm-gtk0 1.0.2-1 ii libnm-util2 0.9.10.0-7 ii libnotify4 0.7.6-2 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libsecret-1-0 0.18-1+b1 ii mate-polkit [policykit-1-gnome] 1.8.0+dfsg1-4 ii network-manager 1.0.2-2 ii policykit-1-gnome 0.105-2 Versions of packages network-manager-gnome recommends: ii gnome-keyring 3.14.0-1+b1 ii iso-codes 3.57-1 ii mate-notification-daemon [notification-daemon] 1.8.1-3 ii mobile-broadband-provider-info 20140317-1 ii notification-daemon 0.7.6-2 Versions of packages network-manager-gnome suggests: pn network-manager-openconnect-gnome <none> ii network-manager-openvpn-gnome 0.9.10.0-1 pn network-manager-pptp-gnome <none> pn network-manager-vpnc-gnome <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
