** Description changed:
[impact]
network-manager no longer correctly saves VPN passwords
[test case]
on a 19.10 (or later) system, configure a VPN with network-manager and
provide a password that it should save. On next connection, it will
prompt for a password again.
[regression potential]
as this adjusts how n-m handles connections with secrets/passwords, any
regression would likely cause secrets to fail to be stored for later
use, and/or failure to correctly use the secrets at all to setup the
connection.
[scope]
- This bug was introduced after version 1.18, so it needs fixing only in
- Eoan and Focal.
+ This is needed only in eoan.

+ The patch:
+
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/cf557bf06f344bdbcd775dce35daa42335c645d7
+ is included in the 1.20.6 release:
+
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/issues/230#note_283402
+
+ focal-proposed currently has version 1.20.8, so this patch is already

Hi everyone,
After upgrading to kubuntu 19.10 I can't save the VPN password using Store
password for this user only. It seems the integration with the kwallet is
failing somehow...
The system logs seem to show that everything went ok, but the password is not
saved:
jan 02 11:40:40 NetworkManager[5530]: <info> [1577965240.2166] audit:
op="connection-update" uuid="4c05-911a-1d9161f05a19" name="ovpn"
args="vpn.secrets" pid=14142 uid=1000 result="success"
This also happens with a clean install.
Operating System: Kubuntu 19.10
KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0
Qt Version: 5.12.4
Kernel Version: 5.3.0-24-generic
