Does the current ppp package in unstable fail when used on Linux 2.6.32 from squeeze? Or was the problem only with Linux 3.1? In the latter case there is nothing to be done as that version is obsolete and unsupported. In the former case we need to deal with the incompatibility somehow. Note that the ppp source hasn't changed at all recently. > If this is some known issue between ppp and 3.1 > then maybe possible fix would be adding a dependency between 3.2 > kernel and ppp2.4.5-5.1? This sort of incompatibility cannot be solved with dependencies. Installing a new kernel package doesn't mean you're immediately running that kernel version.
