I click on Network Manager, VPN Connections, Configure VPN.

All the options to add or edit a VPN are greyed out.

I have tried sudo aptitude install network-manager-gnome

No packages are installed.

By the way, I updated this Tirsquel 5.5 about an hour ago.

What can I do to configure the VPN?

Thank you!

From what is essentially a base install, you just need to do the following:
sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn
sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn-gnome

I think the first one is installed by default, but the "gnome" one was
not. That should enable the Add button.

Installing the network-manager-openvpn-gnome package did the trick (network-manager-openvpn was already installed). Thanks!

Please read the error message and *try* to solve your problem by yourself. aptitude and apt-get say:
E: Unable to locate package install

It is simply because you typed "install" twice (the second is therefore considered a package name).

As for the output of 'sudo aptitude install network-manager-gnome', it does not do anything because network-manager-gnome already is on your system.

Your software sources seem to be a mess. Can you show us the output of:
$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list

Thank you for your help, Magic Banana!

I have accessed the VPN configuration tool now. :)

I am sorry about not reading the output. I am not very good at it.

Here is the output:

cat /etc/apt/sources/list
cat: /etc/apt/sources/list: No such file or directory

Here is the content of /etc/apt/sources.list

You have changed your software sources since 13:11, haven't you? APT was contacting a Dutch mirror: http://nl.archive.trisquel.info/

Your /etc/apt/sources.list looks fine.
