Description of problem: The MimeType entry in .desktop files can contain multiple values and every value must have a trailing semicolon: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s03.html | Some keys can have multiple values. In such a case, the value of the key is | specified as a plural: for example, string(s). The multiple values should be | separated by a semicolon, and the value of the key should have a semicolon as | trailing character. Semicolons in these values need to be escaped using \;. But /usr/share/applications/nm-vpnc.desktop uses this entry: MimeType=application/x-cisco-vpn-settings Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-vpnc-0.7.0.99-1.fc10.x86_64

This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
NetworkManager-vpnc-0.8.0-1.git20100411.fc12 has been pushed to the Fedora 12 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
