This is a serious problem compromising the security of OpenVPN on Linux. Every time I try to use crl-verify I get the following error:

nm-openvpn[3957]: Options error: --crl-verify fails with '/var/lib/openvpn/chroot/[insert path to pem file selected here]': No such file or directory (errno=2)

The network manager cannot find the specified .pem file because for some reason the path is being prepended with "/var/lib/openvpn/chroot/". This bug needs to be fixed ASAP, I had no idea this was an issue until "upgrading" to this broken version of the network manager in Ubuntu 20.04. This bug is completely unacceptable and frankly ridiculous in that it has not been fixed or addressed. Please fix this issue.
