So in addition to the bits I mentioned before, in the same place you
will additionally want to do something like:

GPtrArray *array;
int i;

array = g_ptr_array_sized_new (1);
vpn_manager = nm_vpn_manager_get ();
nm_vpn_manager_add_active_connections (vpn_manager, filter, active);
g_object_unref (vpn_manager);

for (i = 0; i < array->len; i++) {
    char *path = (const char *) g_ptr_array_index (array, i);
    nm_manager_deactivate_connection (self, (const char *) path, error);
    g_free (path);
}

g_ptr_array_free (array, TRUE);
