Switch to NetworkManager 1.46.2

[bigboipete]

I hope this is the right place for my request. I wanted to place it as close to the Dev team as possible.

Could you please introduce NetworkManager-1.46.2 along with NetworkManager-openvpn-1.12.0 in Mint 22.1. (or earlier, depending on the efforts this would take). This fixes a very annoying bug, which prevents vpn login via OpenVPN on Linux Mint.

NetworkManager-1.46.2
"Fix OpenVPN dynamic challenge handling (needs updated NetworkManager-openvpn)"
Release Notes

NetworkManager-openvpn-1.12.0
"Adapt to the new way of handling the 2FA secret by the daemon, needed by it to fix a bug with certain clients. Requires NetworkManager >= 1.46.2."
Release Notes

Sorry again, if this isn't the proper way to file this request. I couldn't find a better place.

Mint don't manage these packages but inherit from Ubuntu. If this bug is important enough, maybe someone can convince Ubuntu to backport the fix to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS?
