Description Marcin Mirosław 2012-08-16 08:15:57 UTC

Upgrading iproute2 makes openvpn unusable. Openvpn tries to run /sbin/ip and it fails. It's needed to recompile openvpn.
Please don't forget some hosts are available only via openvpn, such upgrade make host unreachable.

vapier:
you moved the binary for bug 330115, it also noted that there should be a symlink, and I think you missed that.

i responded in that bug to the symlink idea

if openvpn is the only breakage, that's a known bug.  iproute2 isn't the only upgrade that breaks it.
