 +===== Segmentation Fault Fix =====
 +
 +  * :!: At some point in 2021, trying to enable ''Automatically connect to VPN'' causes it to segmentation fault
 +  * :!: Apparently fixed upstream with [[https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet/-/commit/da6b2bb94250d8ffb218caf921c9df8c394372d4|da6b2bb9]]
 +  * On Fedora 34, an updated ''network-manager-applet'' solves this (see [[https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing#Enabling_the_repositories_temporarily|QA:Updates Testing]])
 +  * :!: TODO: See if this still works if the applet is downgraded with ''distro-sync'' but the VPN auto-connect is enabled
 +
 +<code>sudo dnf install 'network-manager-applet' --enablerepo='updates-testing,updates-testing-modular' --best && sync</code>
