Hi, well I experienced this bug few minutes ago, after an update my gnome network manager was dead, I restarted the systemr but nothing happened, no internet access, so I don't have wireless internet; wired internet still work though.
I un- and installed the gnome network manager several times without success; it doesn't work.
I tried also the command "nmapplet" but it tells me -no such directory-.
I know use Wicd Network manager which works just fine.

Just stating that package was queued for building, but building failed:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/0.8~a~git.20090923t220421.1ac8ffd-0ubuntu1/+build/1259761

So we might just have to wait :)

Installing libnm-glib-vpn and creating s simbolic link called "libnm-glib-vpn.so.0" works fine for me.

Creating the symlink fixes the problem for me too.

New package has been uploaded to fix the build.

It would actually have been useful to keep this bug open for a bit so people find it when they search...

I made exactly what #4 did, I was frustrated because I'm on Wireless and don't know how to configure /etc/network/interfaces for it :)

But I did the "ln" and now I seeing that this has been reported and fixed, wow :)

P.S. I'm seeing a lot of testers having to install everything again hehehe

I managed to get out of my "no-internet-lock-down" by downloading the newest version of network-manager-gnome and libnm-glib2 from my dualboot windows (not really sure if the second is necessary) and installing them on ubuntu, after a reboot my network manager was up and running again. Thought it might help others.
