There is a bug, the "fix" is to re-emerge openvpn. Apparently openvpn has hardcoded paths for ifconfig and friends, which are set when it is compiled, based on the locations at the time. Re-emerging builds it with the new locations. -- Neil Bothwick Kludge: (v., adj., or n.) to fix a program in the usual way.
