Package: pppoeconf Version: 1.12 Severity: minor I recently installed this system. Its a basic Debian-Testing. As this is now my internet router at home and I am using ADSL over PPPOE, I just installed pppoeconf in the hope that pppoe will be installed too.
I didn't look at the apt-get output, but afterwards when I tried to boot my new router and enter pppoeconf, I got a lot of strange error messages which were overwritten by the pppoeconf dialog again. So I did a pppoeconf 2>/tmp/pppoeconf.log and saw that it was missing a pppoe binary(!). So in part it is my fault - I should have checked more carefully if it gets installed. But I do not see any reason why the pppoeconf package should not depend on the pppoe package - as far as I know you can't do anything with pppoeconf without pppoe.
