Hi all,

I configured NM/OpenVPN to get the needed certificates from my homedir 
${HOME}/openvpn/*

When trying to launch, it fails because of:

May  8 12:12:51 mihamina-i5 setroubleshoot: SELinux is preventing 
/usr/sbin/openvpn from open access on the file 
/home/mihamina/openvpn/mihamina.crt. For complete SELinux messages. run 
sealert -l 2a4693c2-93a8-4d29-94a5-0b0fdd89e592
May  8 12:12:56 mihamina-i5 NetworkManager[659]: <info> VPN service 
'openvpn' disappeared
May  8 12:13:19 mihamina-i5 /usr/bin/sealert: exception ValueError: 
unknown locale: en_DK
May  8 12:13:26 mihamina-i5 /bin/sealert: exception ValueError: unknown 
locale: en_DK


What to do? I really want to give its chance to SELinux... :-)
