Package: network-manager-vpnc Version: 0.8.1-1 Severity: important Tags: upstream
I am running Debain Sid. The KDE system tray utility knetworkmanager (package as network-manager-kde) provides the ability to control a computer's network connections via the network-manager framework. One part of this framework is support for Cisco VPN. I have configured a Cisco VPN connection and the knetworkmanager tray shows this option when I right-click on the system-tray icon. By default, the VPN is not enabled, but can be enabled by selecting the VPN in the knetworkmanager display (shown when I right-click on the system-tray item). When I enable the Cisco VPN, the knetworkmanager crashes. It does this every time I enable the Cisco VPN. It is unclear to me whether the problem is with the network-manager-kde package or the network-manager-vpnc package. The Cisco settings I have configured has worked in the past (with a previous version of the software), so I suspect that either the API of the vpnc package has changed or the KDE network-manager package has introduced a bug. I have seen a couple of upstream bugs that sound similar to this issue in the KDE bug tracker. They are for different distributions, so I believe this issue is not Debian-specific.
