Package: vpnc
Version: 0.5.3r449-2
Severity: normal

Sorry, i had some problems sending this report via thunderbird. Hope
reportbug works now.

There seems to be the same/similar problem with the vpnc when i'm connected via 
wlan at our university and try to start a vpn connection. When i start the vpnc 
i get this error:

---------------------------------------
Usage: ip link add link DEV [ name ] NAME
                   [ txqueuelen PACKETS ]
                   [ address LLADDR ]
                   [ broadcast LLADDR ]
                   [ mtu MTU ]
                   type TYPE [ ARGS ]
       ip link delete DEV type TYPE [ ARGS ]

       ip link set DEVICE [ { up | down } ]
                      [ arp { on | off } ]
                      [ dynamic { on | off } ]

                      [ broadcast LLADDR ]
                      [ mtu MTU ]
                      [ netns PID ]
              [ alias NAME ]
       ip link show [ DEVICE ]

TYPE := { vlan | veth | vcan | dummy | ifb | macvlan | can }
SIOCSIFMTU: invalid argument
-------------------------------------

and the mtu of tun0 is set to 1500. When i comment out the whole "if [-n 
"%INTERNAL_IP4_MTU" block and just use MTU=1412 the error is gone.

After that i have tried Philipp solution and it works too, no error is shown 
and the mtu is set to 1412.
