Philippe; could there be extra settings installed on your system to limit access to configuration?

Confirmed with amd64 on my desktop, and i386 on my laptop. I cannot edit an existing VPN connection properly. Steps to reproduce: 1) Install any (or all) of the NetworkManager VPN plugins (like network-manager-openvpn, network-manager-vpnc, or network-manager-pptp) 2) Start nm-connection-editor, either from the console or right-click nm-applet, Edit Connections 3) Click VPN tab, and create new VPN connection. Ensure all settings are correct, especially those in the "VPN" tab 4) Ensure "Available to all users" is checked and click Apply 5) Click the newly-created VPN connection, and click Edit Result: The connection is edited, but the "VPN" tab is missing. Only the "IPv4 Settings" tab appears. Also noted are errors on the console: (nm-connection-editor:6859): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_notebook_append_page: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (child)' failed (nm-connection-editor:6859): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_set_sensitive: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed If you uncheck "Available to all users", then save and re-Edit, the VPN tab will appear.
