Package: vpnc
Version: 0.5.3r449-2.1
Severity: normal
The provided vpnc-script is not compatible with recent versions of iproute,
apparently, as the output format has changed corresponding to version 2.6.39
and later of the kernel. (It isn't clear to me whether the change was in the
kernel itself or in the iproute package, based on the information cited
below.)
This is the bug described here:
http://aptosid.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=1295
and the work-around given on that page comprises the following patch, which I
have tested and which solved the problem for me.
