network-manager-openvpn does not see gconf-configured connections

Distro: Ubuntu precise

$uname -a
Linux pc2744 3.2.0-14-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 3 23:17:59 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ dpkg -l |grep network-manager-openvpn
ii network-manager-openvpn 0.9.0-0ubuntu1 network management framework (OpenVPN plugin core)
ii network-manager-openvpn-gnome 0.9.0-0ubuntu1 network management framework (OpenVPN plugin GNOME GUI)

1. Configuring openvpn via Network-manager-openvpn works OK, and it look like it stores the config in
    /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/MetNoVPN1 and MetNoVPN2

2. Configuring openvpn connections by using gconftools does not work:

3. In lucid I was using the following gconf settings which was working very well:

$ gconftool-2 -R /system/networking/connections/MetNoVPN1
 /system/networking/connections/MetNoVPN1/ipv4:
  name = ipv4
  method = auto
 /system/networking/connections/MetNoVPN1/vpn:
  ta = /home/xxxx/.vpn/ta.key
  key = /home/xxxx/.vpn/steinhj_pc2744.key
  cert = /home/xxxx/.vpn/steinhj_pc2744.crt
  ca = /home/xxxx/.vpn/ca.crt
  username = xxxx
  service-type = org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn
  port = 443
  tap-dev = yes
  comp-lzo = yes
  proto-tcp = yes
  cipher = AES-256-CBC
  remote = xxx.xx.xx.xxx
  connection-type = password-tls
  ta-dir = 1
 /system/networking/connections/MetNoVPN1/connection:
  type = vpn
  id = MetNoVPN1
  autoconnect = false

4. When I open network-manager -> VPN-Connections : None of my connections is visible.

Should i report this as a bug, or is there another way to do it in precise ?
