** Description changed: + [impact] + + network-manager no longer correctly saves VPN passwords + + [test case] + + on a 19.10 (or later) system, configure a VPN with network-manager and + provide a password that it should save. On next connection, it will + prompt for a password again. + + [regression potential] + + as this adjusts how n-m handles connections with secrets/passwords, any + regression would likely cause secrets to fail to be stored for later + use, and/or failure to correctly use the secrets at all to setup the + connection. + + [scope] + + This bug was introduced after version 1.18, so it needs fixing only in + Eoan and Focal. + + [other info] + + original description: + --- + + Hi everyone, After upgrading to kubuntu 19.10 I can't save the VPN password using Store password for this user only. It seems the integration with the kwallet is failing somehow... The system logs seem to show that everything went ok, but the password is not saved: jan 02 11:40:40 NetworkManager[5530]: <info> [1577965240.2166] audit: op="connection-update" uuid="4c05-911a-1d9161f05a19" name="ovpn" args="vpn.secrets" pid=14142 uid=1000 result="success" This also happens with a clean install.
