Sorry for the followup, but I forgot to ask: Do you intend to create a kernel-patch-mppe package too (from the same source package that generates the ppp-mppe binary package) ? Because otherwise MPPE support in pppd wouldn't be too helpful :-) If you need a MPPE patch for pppd 2.4.0f, I can send you one (I have my own ppp-mppe package here, so the MPPE patch is suitable for the Debian pppd 2.4.0f-1 package, just a file to be included in the DBS patch dir). It works for me, but I can give no guarantees that it works somewhere else (I had to modify the MPPE patch a bit because it conflicted with other patches from the Debian package).
best regards, Rene
