I can confirm the bug; it makes the network-manager-openvpn useless at
what it's supposed to be helpful with ;-).

Given that it seems to be a DBus error, I tried to modify our
network-manager-service-type so that it would consider the VPN plugins
as well when extending the dbus-system-service:

Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2019 07:51:07 -0500

Debugging a bit further, it seems that my change to the
network-manager-service-type had the following effect:

A file populated at /etc/dbus-1/system-local.conf now has an include
directive for network-manager-openvpn:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
<includedir>/gnu/store/gw3ckmw2pihc44d23lc8pipfw7wr16g7-network-manager-openvpn-1.8.0/etc/dbus-1/system.d</includedir>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

There is no /etc/dbus-1/system.conf file, which usually should source
the above system-local.conf, although the package holds a copy of it
such as
/gnu/store/5bda3bgy871dyb9cna4k7gnz002j88rq-dbus-1.12.6/share/dbus-1/system.conf,
and this file has:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
<!-- This is included last so local configuration can override what's

       in this standard file -->
  <include ignore_missing="yes">/etc/dbus-1/system-local.conf</include>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'm not sure if it works though, because using the Emacs dbus support to
view the available definitions, I cannot see the ones from the
system-local.conf file:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(require 'dbus)
(dbus-list-activatable-names ':system)

;; Results:
("org.freedesktop.DBus"		     ;
 "org.freedesktop.UPower"	     ;from /etc/dbus-1/system-services
 "org.freedesktop.GeoClue2"	     ;from /etc/dbus-1/system-services
 "org.freedesktop.login1"	     ;from /etc/dbus-1/system-services
 "org.freedesktop.UDisks2"	     ;from /etc/dbus-1/system-services
 "org.freedesktop.ColorHelper"	     ;from /etc/dbus-1/system-services
 "org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1"	     ;from /etc/dbus-1/system-services
 "org.freedesktop.Accounts"	     ;from /etc/dbus-1/system-services
 "org.freedesktop.ColorManager"	     ;from /etc/dbus-1/system-services
 "org.freedesktop.nm_dispatcher")	;from /etc/dbus-1/system-services
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So it could be that the system-local.conf file is not read in.

I've tried stracing the dbus-daemon (by attaching to it) as suggested by
Ludovic on #guix, but that doesn't mention anything about reading the
files.

So, to debug this further, I've added the documentation to dbus [1] and
in `man dbus-daemon`, we can read:



--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
DEBUGGING
       If you're trying to figure out where your messages are going or why you aren't getting messages, there are
       several things you can try.

       Remember that the system bus is heavily locked down and if you haven't installed a security policy file to
       allow your message through, it won't work. For the session bus, this is not a concern.

       The simplest way to figure out what's happening on the bus is to run the dbus-monitor program, which comes
       with the D-Bus package. You can also send test messages with dbus-send. These programs have their own man
       pages.

       If you want to know what the daemon itself is doing, you might consider running a separate copy of the daemon
       to test against. This will allow you to put the daemon under a debugger, or run it with verbose output,
       without messing up your real session and system daemons.

       To run a separate test copy of the daemon, for example you might open a terminal and type:

             DBUS_VERBOSE=1 dbus-daemon --session --print-address

       The test daemon address will be printed when the daemon starts. You will need to copy-and-paste this address
       and use it as the value of the DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment variable when you launch the applications
       you want to test. This will cause those applications to connect to your test bus instead of the
       DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS of your real session bus.

       DBUS_VERBOSE=1 will have NO EFFECT unless your copy of D-Bus was compiled with verbose mode enabled. This is
       not recommended in production builds due to performance impact. You may need to rebuild D-Bus if your copy
       was not built with debugging in mind. (DBUS_VERBOSE also affects the D-Bus library and thus applications
       using D-Bus; it may be useful to see verbose output on both the client side and from the daemon.)

       If you want to get fancy, you can create a custom bus configuration for your test bus (see the session.conf
       and system.conf files that define the two default configurations for example). This would allow you to
       specify a different directory for .service files, for example.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This should help in further debbugging the issue, along with this local
definition that enables the verbose mode of dbus:

You seem to be on very right track. There is another unexpect problem
- NetworkManager doesn't seem to respect NM_VPN_PLUGIN_PATH in the
right place.

Try this quick patch:

Does this patch solve the problem for you?  How did you get there?  :-)

Partially. I was not interested in OpenVPN, but L2TP/IPSec VPN (my new
employer is using) so I was using network-manager-l2tp module with the same problems.
(Actually it is much more painful because it requires some more
patching of xl2tpd and strongswan to bring it up together... They have
somehow hardcoded locations for configuration and secrets...)

But with Maxim's DBus related patches and my NM patch it seemed to be
starting daemons at least.

Best regards,

Do you still have the patches for these changes lying around? I am
trying to get network-manager-vpnc packaged+working, but it seems this
issue will also need to be solved first.
