I'm uncertain wether the log from console has private details, but I got essential the same error as this guy here: https://github.com/eubnara/troubleshooting/issues/19

Error: ipv4: Invalid values in header for route get request.
Usage: ip route { list | flush } SELECTOR
       ip route save SELECTOR
       ip route restore
       ip route showdump
       ip route get [ ROUTE_GET_FLAGS ] ADDRESS

I had to to upgrade to openconnect-8.06, so can we please stabilize this version? 

Also there's new openconnect-8.07 and 8.08 I believe

I'm setting this to higher priority, because people need their vpn right now for library at university!

after some more debugging, it seems that downgrading iproute2 to 4.19.0-r1 can also solve the initial issue 

lemme see if I can find the stable bug for iproute-5.2.0-r1 and annoy everyone with this

That would be a very unproductive use of your time, and will not result in anyone taking you seriously.

I came to the same conclusion in the meantime. Thanks for pickung it up.
