I have come to the conclusion (logs will be reproduced next week and added)
that network-manager-openvpn might not be functional when
used with the network-manager service, as
network-manager-vpnc is structured in a similar way
and it's similar structured in code and how it's being
activated.
I can only test the case for vpnc as I'm debugging
the package right now. It kind-of-works, but the rule
is not being found when you try to activate the
vpnc connection.

Could you clarify a bit what you think is broken?
VPN extensions are definitely found (as can be seen for instance in
‘nm-connection-editor’) in my experience with a config like this:
(network-manager-service-type
config =>
(network-manager-configuration
(inherit config)
(vpn-plugins (list (specification->package+output
"network-manager-openvpn")))))
Thanks,
Ludo’.

Like this, where "…" is a removed uuid:
Nov 14 12:16:35 localhost NetworkManager[421]: <info> [1510661795.5451] audit: op="connection-activate" uuid="…" name="VPN HS-BO" pid=639 uid=1000 result="fail" reason="The VPN service 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.vpnc' was not installed."
NetworkManager-vpnc is in my profile (I have to send this in)
and the vpnc file and profile is correct.

paste from my current systemconfig:
;; networking with network-manager
(service wpa-supplicant-service-type wpa-supplicant)
(service network-manager-service-type
(network-manager-configuration
(vpn-plugins (list network-manager-openvpn
network-manager-vpnc))))
Context here: https://c.n0.is/systems/tree/guixsd/workstations/abyayala/config.scm
and this mess is the vpnc plugin for NM:

I’m sorry but I can’t offer to address a bug that’s not in Guix proper.
That said, you’re welcome to submit network-manager-vpnc for inclusion!
Thanks,

Sorry, I mentioned in my initial message that vpnc AND openvpn are affected.
The error message is the same for OpenVPN and VPNC plugin.
This is not resolved.

Hi ng0,
So, actually, it’s just this?
(service network-manager-service-type
(network-manager-configuration
(vpn-plugins (list network-manager-openvpn))))
And the error message is this?
> Nov 14 12:16:35 localhost NetworkManager[421]: <info> [1510661795.5451] audit: op="connection-activate" uuid="…" name="VPN HS-BO" pid=639 uid=1000 result="fail" reason="The VPN service 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn' was not installed."
Please always provide a clear and minimal test case. Otherwise we have
no chance of reproducing the problem.

More or less.
To be more precise:
Before I packaged the vpnc plugin, I just had the openvpn plugin
with a config and error message as you described.
With vpnc it's the same, I filed this bug with the assumption that
both errors are related. nothing provides
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn or org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.vpnc
The files that should provide them are missing, I've double checked this.
The subject line for the bug could've been better.
I have this really unnecessary and sadly
mandatory presence lecture tomorrow, I'll prepare the vpnc package
and send it then, so that you can apply what I work with.
Of course you need an VPNC test case, I only need this because
of the eduroam here in Bochum.

You may be right, but it was not obvious to me that the OpenVPN and the
VPNC plugins would fail in exactly the same way, especially since the
error mentions the “org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.vpnc” DBus service.
As it is, I wouldn’t know how to act based on this bug report since I’m
not even sure how to reproduce it.
