Egoshin - the file won't be missing. My guess is that vpnc modifies that network_ipv4.script file (which is supposed to be there).. because that file is modified.. when you updated today with the push from Nokia - dpkg refuses to replace files that were modified by the user (which it was, when you installed the application that modified it). It instead puts the file it WOULD have overwritten it with, as a .dpkg-dist file instead in order to extract the file to where it WOULD have gone, but not overwrite the modified file.
You then have to move the file yourself to make it active.
Nokiabuf: This is
not
a problem with Nokia anymore than installing a random EXE off the internet breaks your desktop is a problem for Microsoft. This was a third party application installed, modified a system file, and is now incompatible with the new firmware. This is a bug in the
software
.. not in Nokia's firmware or Nokia's default behavior. Nokia cannot possibly be assumed to make sure every possible update will not interfere with every package in Extras-testing and Extras-devel. It is the package maintainers of those packages that must update their applications to work with the new firmware.
