connections fails with 'property “2fa-flags” invalid or not supported'
On Arch Linux, under KDE Plasma, I am using
- networkmanager-fortisslvpn 1.4rc1-3
- openfortivpn 1.15.0-1
- networkmanager 1.30.0-1
Whenever I create a new VPN connection, the nmconnection file contains the following lines:
[vpn]
2fa-flags=0
It seems, networkmanager-fortisslvpn cannot digest that and fails as follows after I am prompted to enter the password:
$ journalctl -f -u NetworkManager

Due to this, networkmanager-fortisslvpn is completely unusable. I don't know who puts the 2fa-flags=0
line in the nmconnection file. Could this be a new networkmanager "feature"?
When I start /usr/bin/openfortivpn
manually, the VPN will work.
