Title:
NetworkManager does not auto-connect to VPNs marked
Please advice: I'm having a bug in Ubuntu Trusty Tahr 14.04 LTS that is
very much related to this bug, but it might not be quite the same. So I
can either file a new bug report or reopen this one.
The issue I'm having is that although the VPN auto-connects for
connections that are marked as such.
It is always better to file a new bug if in doubt.

@Ansus, the bug is reported and fixed upstream:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=560471. If you can reproduce
a bug in Fedora, of course you can report it there too and maybe be more
likely it is fixed upstream, but reporting it in the upstream bug

Ansus; it doesn't mean we can't send patches. I can't possibly see every
comment of every bug, there's just too many.
This can't be shipped as SRU; it depends on rather intrusive changes to
NM and would furthermore need changes to nm-applet (including new
strings that would have to be translated)
Actually I apologise for being snarky yesterday. I've read the full
upstream bug now and whilst it is a complex set of needs to make VPNs
work in all use cases (mine being relatively simple), it looks like NM
with this check box is up to its usual tricks of claiming features that
just don't work
Someone has messed up the bug link. This bug _has_ actually been fixed
upstream and you should expect a fix in the next version of Ubuntu.
