Public bug reported:

I'm running Linux Mint 18.1 MATE.

I'm using openconnect to connect to a VPN that requires a second
authentication factor, which network-manager-openconnect can prompt for
after the initial connection has been established using my username and
password.

In network-manager-openconnect and network-manager-openconnect-gnome
versions 1.2.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.1, the connect immediately fails when
asking for the second authentication factor. The openconnect dialog is
still present but Network Manager notifies that the connection
immediately fails.

After doing some research, I found this page:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1201304#p1201304 It seems
that Network Manager is not looking for the dialog executable in the
correct location. The dialog is located at /usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-
openconnect-auth-dialog, but Network Manager expects to find it at
/usr/lib/gnome-shell/nm-openconnect-auth-dialog. Indeed, if I symlink
nm-openconnect-auth-dialog to that location, I can then enter the second
authentication factor (well, if it's within 25 seconds, otherwise it
just fails anyway -- see #1575354).

My network-manager package version is 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.3.
