Hi guys,
I'm having a problem connecting to a VPN in KF5:
Until a couple days ago, I was using KDE4, and there I was still able to connect to a VPN (I'm using IPVanish), although after connecting to any VPN I always had to run the command
# ip route add default dev tun0for the NetworkManager to actually use the connection.
However, now with KF5, this doesn't seem to work anymore. All my VPN connections are listed in the applet, and connecting to any fo them also seems to work (it takes a few second, then the VPN connection is added to the "Active Connections" section), however, all my network traffic still goes through my "normal" connection. Running the above command after connecting to a VPN doesn't change anything.
Here is the log of NetworkManager, I can't spot anything unusual:

Edit:
Okay, I figure out a way to use VPN:
NetworkManager somehow appears to have some problems with OpenVPN. I tried to set up a connection using PPTP (both are offered by the provider), and it works right away without doing any additional work.
It's not really a solution to the above problems, but it solves the issue for me...
