[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#609037: Installation of network-manager-openvpn does not set correct udev rules

[Stefan Schörghofer]

Package: network-manager-openvpn
Version: 0.8.1-1

I've installed:
i A libnm-glib-vpn1
i   network-manager-openvpn
i   network-manager-openvpn-gnome
i   network-manager-vpnc          
i   network-manager-vpnc-gnome     
i A openvpn                       
i A openvpn-blacklist            
i A vpnc                            - Cisco-compatible VPN client

Then created a vpn server and client config and testet on shell ->
Connection was OK
After that i importet working client config in Network-manager and
testet connection:

After some searches i found a problem in the dbus configuration
regarding the network-manager.
The attached patch worked for me after a reboot.
