Hi again!
Is there a way to get this issue pushed out to Intrepid what so ever? Who can decide that this is important enough to fix? The job itself is quite easy, so I guess it's just a matter of will and/or ability to see this from a users point of view.
Actually, I guess it's just about as much work to fix this once, for all users world wide, as for each user to fix it herself. So fixing this once for all would save thousands of clicks, google searches, and Synaptic startups. All this energy combined could probably save a tree, or at least a small (it might be tiny) bush!
If it can't be fixed the option to select VPN-connections should just go away. Having non-working options makes the operating system look unfinished. If I was just a user testing Ubuntu for the first time, I would leave Ubuntu and go back to Windows and Cisco VPN client. over an issue like that. Regular users don't use Synaptic or apt-get.
I see Shaun here compares this with SAMBA, which I think is an valid comparishment. You can compare it to anything.. What if GIMP was in the menu, but greyed out, because it was not installed. In my opinion; if it's not installed, it shouldn't be in the menu.
