[Bug 481054] [NEW] Cannot connect to VPN ("No VPN secrets!") if no private key password is required

[Jim Cheetham]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager-vpnc

I have an OpenVPN configuration that works from the command-line,
without requiring any passwords to be entered (simple possession of the
keys & certs is sufficient).

When I import the configuration file into Network Manager, and do not
specify a "Private Key Password' value, connections fail, logging into
/var/log/syslog :-

Nov 12 12:59:41 roro NetworkManager: <WARN>
nm_vpn_connection_connect_cb(): VPN connection 'testvpn' failed to
connect: 'No VPN secrets!'.

When I specify a useless value for the Private Key Password field (e.g.
a space character), the connection works.
