[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#504193: Bug#504193: /usr/bin/nm-applet: unable to configure VPN

[Anand Kumria]

Hi Michael,

Thank you for letting me know. I am currently using the available
plugins in experimental and unstable.

If these do not work with network manager 0.7, would it make sense
with versions less than a specific version?

Thanks,
Anand
