Hmmm autoconnect has always been a property of NMSettingConnecting as far as I know. What is your NetworkManager version? nmcli -v

Hi,
Here is the version :

nmcli -v 
nmcli tool, version 1.52.0

I did try to comment the line but the client keep complaining on any .set_property() in eduvpn/nm.py.

So I tried for now 3 hours to set up a GNU Guix system. The official ISO installer crashes with some "write_wait_fd: unimplemented" error and the official qcow2 doesn't have NetworkManager enabled (I can't seem to enable it, I don't have enough knowledge).

the guix shell I used was:

guix shell python python-pip ninja gcc-toolchain cmake cairo pkg-config python-pygobject

and then pip installing the client (pip install eduvpn-client[gui]). That (~/.local/bin/eduvpn-gui) fails because the qcow2 VM didn't have NM. I'm not sure I can do anything else to help you. It seems either some dependencies are missing on your system or there is a packaging error somewhere as these properties are definitely available.

If you have a VM image for me that I can try that would be helpful

Hi,
Sorry to heard about that.

If you have guix running as a foreign you can use the following definition to build a VM with guix system vm config.scm followed by sudo ${output of previous command} -smp cpus=4 -m 8g. This should pop up a VM with gnome-desktop running (beware, the keyboard is in french).

(use-modules (gnu)
 (guix channels)
 (guix packages)
 (guix records)
 (guix store)
 (ice-9 match)
 (gnu packages linux))
(use-service-modules desktop xorg ssh)
(operating-system
 (locale "en_US.utf8")
 (timezone "UTC")
 (keyboard-layout (keyboard-layout "fr"))
 (host-name "test-eduvpn")
 (users (cons* 
 (user-account
 (name "eduvpn")
 (comment "eduvpn")
 (group "users")
 (password (crypt "eduvpn" "eduvpn"))
 (home-directory "/home/eduvpn")
 (supplementary-groups '("wheel" "netdev" "audio" "video" "cdrom")))
 %base-user-accounts))
 (services
 (append (list
 (service gnome-desktop-service-type)
 (set-xorg-configuration (xorg-configuration (keyboard-layout keyboard-layout)))
 (service openssh-service-type)
 ) %desktop-services ))
 (bootloader (bootloader-configuration
 (bootloader grub-bootloader)
 (targets '("/dev/sda"))))
 (file-systems (cons (file-system
 (device (file-system-label "my-root"))
 (mount-point "/")
 (type "ext4"))
 %base-file-systems)))

Or you can download this qcow2 (with the same problem of french keyboard).

Thanks for you time.

Cheers,
Jeff

Hi, The error was caused by the fact that network manager is in the system profile, and I think it just wasn't searched for.

guix shell cairo pkg-config network-manager gobject-introspection gtk+ libnotify python libsecret
does the trick and the client launches (installation via pip).

It should be possible to make a real package.

small update : for installation , you also need ninja
so for install : guix shell cairo pkg-config network-manager gobject-introspection gtk+ libnotify python libsecret ninja -- python3 -m pip install eduvpn-client
for running :
guix shell cairo pkg-config network-manager gobject-introspection gtk+ libnotify python libsecret -- ~/.local/bin/eduvpn-gui

hello, the timing isn't perfect for me, I'm leaving tonight and will be away from the keyboards for 3 weeks.

I had a quick look at packaging, but the eduvpn-common part (written in go) doesn't seem trivial to package (I'm not an expert in compiling go packages).

I might have a look when I get back, but no guarantees. Having eduvpn packaged directly in Guix would certainly be a good signal.

Hello,

Yes and no. I can't get the guix shell working and packaging it the correct way for guix is a pain so I kinda gave up and spawn a light vm with a supported distrib whenever I need to use eduvpn.

Cheers.
