Cc’ing bug-guix@gnu.org

I suspect something like the attached patch would help (and expand the
closure of network-manager to always include openconnect).

To test, follow section “Building from Git” from the manual or Laura’s
video 04-packaging-part-one.webm from
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2019-07/msg00249.html>,
but after the initial clone command, do

  git apply the-attached.patch

Then after make, do

  sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm

(or whatever your configuration file is called).  I cannot test right
now and have never used openconnect.  It is quite possible I made a
mistake.

Regards,
Florian
