Package: network-manager Version: 0.9.4.0-10 Severity: important Tags: patch Affects: network-manager-strongswan
Hi, NetworkManager started to require a tun device for all VPNs, but there are no such devices when IPsec is used. This basically breaks network-manager-strongswan (currently broken due to another bug, but ...). Attached patch is inspired on the patches from [1] which were apparently applied to RHEL. I looked at NM upstream's repo and I didn't see such changes, so I don't know the status for fixing this bug directly at upstream. The main difference between the RH patches is that n-m-strongswan is already telling NM that the interface is "none", while the RH patches add a new define that sets the iface to "_none_". In their case it affects the openswan NM plugin. Please consider applying the patch, or fixing the bug in another way. Note that this patch is against wheezy.
