Public bug reported: Binary package hint: network-manager-openvpn
Using a key that requires a password in a known-working (outside of network manager) setup, nm-ovpn does not provide the password to the VPN. Here's a snippet from syslog: Mar 25 12:13:53 localhost NetworkManager: <info> Starting VPN service 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn'...
