[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#773612: network-manager: No valid IPv4 config information received (pptp), after connection established

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.10.0-4
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

Cannot establish VPN with pptp - any of the setting lead to the same result
(default/split route, only resources..., automatic DNS). However, these
settings do work on Ubuntu 12.04.

After pptp connection is established, NM refuses to add IPv4 settings, noting:
unspecific failure
