Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
Installed recent update to the gnome-control-center: 1:51~beta-1

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     Ineffective)?
Gnome can no longer start vpnc VPNs. OpenVPN and WireGuard connections are fine.  I tried to connect to Cisco VPNs using vpnc from the shell and that worked.

   * What was the outcome of this action?
It worked from a terminal shell.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
I thought perhaps it was vpnc or some other network problem, but it appears to be a Gnome issue.
