GNOME Control Center version 42 has moved from GTK 3 to GTK 4, which means
it can't load VPN configuration plugins that don't have a GTK 4 version.

The approach used in the plugins that have been ported so far, such as
network-manager-openvpn-gnome, was to build both a GTK 3 version (for
network-manager-gnome) and a GTK 4 version (for gnome-control-center),
resulting in a binary package that depends on both GTK 3 and GTK 4.

The GNOME team would like to get GNOME Control Center 42 into unstable,
because it's one of the last GNOME 41 components we're using, and upstream
does not really support mixing components of GNOME 41 with components
of GNOME 42. Please could you look into providing a GTK 4 version?
