Public bug reported:

Attempting to establish an OpenVPN session via network-manager-openvpn
fails with a password authentication error, even though the username and
password I entered are correct.  The following messages in syslog:

Password verification failed

I am able to establish the session by manually running openvpn from the
command line, using the same username, password, and the ovpn file from
which NetworkManager imported the setttings.

I'm running Xubuntu 16.10 (yakkety).
I did not have this problem in Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial).
