NetworkManager and VPN (openconnect)

Hello,

I have a problem with NetworkManager. Basically, when I try to connect to a VPN (via openconnect), nothing happens. The error message in the logs is the same one as described in the wiki. However, I am using KDE and not Gnome. Anyway, that error message appears no matter which client I use (nmcli, nmtui, the KDE applet). I tried creating a few symlinks, but that did not help at all.

ls -alh /usr/lib/NetworkManager/ | grep openconnect
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root  31K Jul 22 09:56 libnm-openconnect-properties.so*
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   50 Sep  4 14:38 nm-openconnect-auth-dialog -> /usr/lib/networkmanager/nm-openconnect-auth-dialog*
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   46 Sep  4 14:38 nm-openconnect-service -> /usr/lib/networkmanager/nm-openconnect-service*
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   65 Sep  4 14:38 nm-openconnect-service-openconnect-helper -> /usr/lib/networkmanager/nm-openconnect-service-openconnect-helper*

Does anyone have an idea, if there is some solution to this problem? The wiki suggests it is a known problem (at least for the Gnome applet), but I cannot find a solution in the forums or using google.
