VPN connection missing the lock icon

Project:Trisquel
Version:6.0
Component:Gnome
Category:bug report
Priority:normal
Assigned:Unassigned
Status:active
Description

In Trisquel 6.0 when a VPN connection is established, the connection icon does not change from normal to VPN. Thus the user does not know whether or not the VPN is active by looking at the connection icon in the panel.

In Trisquel 5.5 there are nice icons for wired and wireless VPN connections with a yellow/golden lock indicating the VPN connection.

see attached screen shots to see the difference in Trisquel 5.5 and 6.0

(i cant say for the Trisquel 6.0 VPN wireless icon, since my 6.0 machine does not have wifi)

this is probably an upstream bug and might be related to:
