Public bug reported:

Hi, it seems there's a bug with the Network Manager GUI where I can't
import an .ovpn file. However, when I run `nmcli connection import type
openvpn file Jacky.ovpn`, it is able to import the VPN connection
successfully.

There is an existing VPN with the exact same content but different
server IP address. I wonder if that is related to the issue?

I have attached screenshot that shows the problem.
