Nope. Fully updated, still cannot import .ovpn. The only difference is that now the VPN won't work through the command line either.

This is regression in Ubuntu 14.04 that worked correctly in previous versions. [Test Case] 1- install network-manager-openvpn and network-manager-openvpn-gnome 2- from the network-manager indicator, click on Edit Connections 3- Click on Add 4- Select Import a saved VPN configuration, and open the file in comment #28 Expected results: a window should appear with the imported information Current results: network-manager's connection editor segfaults [Regression potential] This SRU simply adds a couple of missing sections to the 11-user-connections.patch patch that went missing. If the fix is broken, either the vpn files won't import, or creating a new vpn connection could break completely. Original description: I believe recent changes have broken network-manager-openvpn feature that allows you to "Import saved VPN connection". I've tested this feature with bundles that I've definitely imported successfully in the past. Now, not only does it not import, but it gives absolutely no feedback at all; the window just disappears as though I didn't just ask it to import a VPN.conf file. The folder (I'm importing the .conf file from) includes all the necessary supporting files. I'm very sure this is not a user error on my part. I've done this several times in the past and I'm certain that the files (that are currently being ignored without dialog feedback) are exactly the same as they were when I was able to import successfully a few weeks ago. I've tested this on multiple machines that have Ubuntu 14.04 installed and fully updated. And, even if the files were indeed corrupted (which I'm certain they are not), the fact that the UI just disappears, instead of showing an error, is a bug within itself. Also, I'd like to point out, that I was able to set up this VPN bundle manually. The point of this bug is to report that the ability to import via .conf files (so that you don't have to set things manually) has recently became nonfunctional.
