Package: openvpn
Version: 2.2.1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Since upgrade from 2.2.0-2 to 2.2.1-1, openvpn fails to start.
/var/log/daemon.log:
TUN/TAP device tun-openvpn opened
do_ifconfig, tt->ipv6=0, tt->did_ifconfig_ipv6_setup=0
ip link set dev tun-openvpn up mtu 1500
Linux ip link set failed: could not execute external program
Exiting
I did not find why. An strace shows:
execve("ip", ["ip", "link", "set", "dev", "tun-openvpn", "up", "mtu", "1500"],
[/* 17 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
But from the shell, the exact same command works. I thought that maybe
the PATH is modified in a bad way, but in /etc/init.d/openvpn and the
strace I don't find anything touching the PATH.

Description:
openvpn - virtual private network daemon
Closes: 652702
Changes:
openvpn (2.2.1-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* The iproute fiasco release.
* Remove --enable-iproute2 dependency since it's only available in Linux.
Write that in the changelog so I don't forget _again_ why iproute is not
set... (Closes: #652702)
