Actually, it appears like the Debian problem was because some users hadn't updated their gnome-shell yet. Since Ubuntu 18.04 already has the updated gnome-shell, let's let this last plugin in now.

We need to cherry-pick the gnome-shell 3.26.2-4 changes for gnome- shell to properly interact with VPNs. unity-control-center will need to be ported away from libnm-glib for it to display VPNs. The only other known affected desktop is Cinnamon which has fixes "pending" Here's the Debian transition bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=pkg-utopia-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org;tag=libnm At first look, KDE Plasma did not seem to be hurt by the libnm-glib support removal, but Kubuntu should probably check more closely. I am filing this bug to coordinate this transition and keep the VPN plugins in -proposed until we at least update gnome-shell.
