Package: openvpn Version: 2.4.0-6+deb9u2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, when using openvpn with a VPN which overrides the default route it does not reconnect after suspend to RAM. After the computer wakes up again the host route for the vpn server is missing and openvpn cannot reconnect to the vpn. Workaround: use /etc/init.d./openvpn restart as root after resume. Tagging this important as in "major consequences without making the package completely unusable" as a non-root user would have to reboot the machine to restore connectivity as workaround. The problem happens in stable and testing versions and only with systemd. At least I replaced systemd on the debian testing with openrc and since then the reconnect works without any problems. Both systems use network-manager to connect to the network but not to manage the openvpn, which just uses a openvpn config in /etc/openvpn. As network-manager does not interfere on the openrc system it seems not to be the problem here. I do not know what systemd does with the routes or if some dependency of systemd is the problem. I only can tell that it did not happen in debian versions with sysvinit and does not happen on the testing system since I switched (for different reasons) to openrc.
