NetworkManager applet does not delete keys in gconf when checkboxes are unchecked in OpenVPN settings

[Sergei (Nolar) Vasilyev]

Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex latest (beta, as I suggest).

NetworkManager applet, when configuring OpenVPN settings, does not saves checkboxes that were unset. I.e., when you toggles checkbox ON, and do "OK", it saves value to gconf backend. Later, when you toggle this checkbox OFF, and again do "OK", it does not store this unchecked value and on next window re-opening will show that checkbox toggled ON. Have to go to gconf-editor and to manually delete those keys.

Relates to "Use LZO compression" and "Use TAP ..." checkboxes at least, maybe to others. Maybe also relates to non-openvpn checkboxes (have nothing to check for this, but seems this is just a config saving bug).

I suggest it is in src/gconf-helpers/gconf-upgrade.c:nm_gconf_0_6_openvpn_settings(). It stores only "yes" values there and does not check them being turned off in checkboxes, so as doesn't reset them to some initial value ("no") in the code. Just guessing.
