This is indeed a known bug, but we have seen it the other way round.
_Our_ (uni Marburg) profile does support wired eduroam because we are still 
using it in some places.
Hence our .mobilconfig for macOS has a section <string>Wired Network</string> 
in it.        
Starting with a certain macOS version, the software that tries to import our 
.mobileconfig
would report "Interface not found" on _some_ MacBooks.
It turned that we could work around this by connecting a compatible 
USB-to-Ethernet adapter once to the device.
This obviously triggers the creation of some internal structure in macOS 
which represent the wired interface.
After plugging in the adapter once, the .mobilconfig import no longer 
complains.

I have looked at the ku.de .mobilconfig: There is no wired config, so the 
error makes even less sense.
But anyway, just give the USB-to-Ethernet adapter a try: Plug one in once, 
the try to import eduroam-OS_X-KUE-TTLS-PAP.mobileconfig again.

Also: Einfach mal einen Apple-komaptiblen USB-auf-Ethernet-Adapter anstecken,
prüfen dass er auch im Systembericht unter Netzwerk auftaucht
und dann nochmal probieren.

Viel Erfolg
Martin Pauly
