Hi,

I have recently upgraded openvpn and realized that the openvpn-5:2.3.7-1maemo2 is broken.

The following command:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/openvpn --daemon --writepid
/var/run/openvpn.ovpn-brq-udp.pid --config /etc/openvpn/ovpn-brq-udp.conf
--persist-key
--management /tmp/ovpn-brq-udp.socket unix --management-hold
--management-query-passwords --cd /etc/openvpn

doesn't return to the shell but waits with the following prompt on the STDIN:
Enter Auth Username:

This breaks apps relying on the openvpn daemon remote management, e.g. openvpn-applet.

The openvpn-5:2.3.2-1maemo1 works as expected.

I will also report this problem directly to the openvpn maintainer.
