Hi n3m3s1s4u .
You have posted the text from the previous fix too literally I think,
and as such you have fixed the problem for the vpnc plugin rather than the openvpn plugin.

Try this instead: the target file is /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-openvpn-service.conf

It has been working for me since release day. You will need to restart dbus etc, so a reboot may be simplest.
