Public bug reported: Binary package hint: network-manager-pptp
I'm not sure if this is the correct place to file this bug, but I did not receive any feedback to tell me otherwise: http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-desktops/2009-June/003005.html The Dell Mini's use the repository at: http://dell-mini.archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ Currently the following network-manager packages are at the version: 0.7~~svn2008... This includes: network-manager (0.7~~svn20081018t105859+mbm.f2-0ubuntu1~hardy5netbook1) network-manager-dev (0.7~~svn20081018t105859+mbm.f2-0ubuntu1~hardy5netbook1) network-manager-gnome (0.7~~svn20081012t133407+mbm.final2-0ubuntu1~hardy1netbook3belmont1) In particular network-manager has the following conflict: Conflicts: network-manager-pptp (< 0.7~~) Replaces: network-manager-pptp (< 0.7~~) yet the available network-manager-pptp package is at version 0.6.5+svnhead2574-0ubuntu1 There for installing network-manager-pptp removes network manager. It seems that intrepid has a network-manager-pptp package at the version: 0.7~~svn20081015t024626-0ubuntu1.8.10.1 So I'm hoping, all that is needed is for someone to backport that package to hardy for the dell-mini repository to allow these nifty Mini's I've convinced folks to try out to get in touch with Ubuntu to allow them to connect to their current Windows infrastructure. lsb_release -rd: Description: Ubuntu 8.04.2 Release: 8.04 LANG=C apt-cache policy network-manager-pptp network-manager-pptp: Installed: (none) Candidate: 0.6.5+svnhead2574-0ubuntu1 Version table: 0.6.5+svnhead2574-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://dell-mini.archive.canonical.com hardy/universe Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: network-manager-pptp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [hardy/dell-mini.archive.canonical.com] Please backport network-manager-pptp 0.7~~svn2008... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/392614 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
