Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help make Ubuntu better.
I think this kind of bug is a bit unnecessary. The only reason you experienced this bug was because you were running -proposed during the development cycle. Ubuntu has safeguards in place that prevents the new version of ppp from reaching regular bionic until these version incompatibilities are fixed (by rebuilding the packages). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1751325 Title: [18.04] Needs to support PPP > 2.4.7-1 Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Bionic has got PPP 2.4.7-2 but network-manager is limited to 2.4.7-1 and so upgrading ppp wants to uninstall network-manager and the likes.
