Package: ppp Version: 2.4.5-2 Severity: important My mobile broadbands works well with ppp 2.4.4rel-10.1. After the upgrade to ppp 2.4.5-1 and today's 2.4.5-2 I can't connect with Network Manager (or anything else?) anymore. I have to downgrade: $ sudo dpkg -i /extra/apt-cacher- ng/debrep/pool/main/p/ppp/ppp_2.4.4rel-10.1_i386.deb dpkg: warning: downgrading ppp from 2.4.5-2 to 2.4.4rel-10.1.
and reconnect my Huawei E220 dongle. After that it works as before. (I have edited the Version tag from reportbug above to reflect the relevant non-working version). A good sign in syslog with ppp 2.4.4rel-10.1: pppd[6754]: Plugin /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.4/nm-pppd-plugin.so loaded. A bad sign in syslog with ppp 2.4.5-2: pppd[2271]: Plugin /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.4/nm-pppd-plugin.so is for pppd version 2.4.4, this is 2.4.5 I have also seen this when it didn't work: pppd[2473]: /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.4/nm-pppd-plugin.so: undefined symbol: pap_passwd_hook That must have been with ppp 2.4.5-1. It seems unrelated to my specific dongle or operator, since it's the same if I use my mobile phone as a modem and connect to another operator. Maybe there should be a dependency between ppp and network-manager so that ppp cannot be upgraded until network-manager is prepared for it. Now network- manager only recommends ppp without any specific version. Here are all relevant syslog lines with ppp 2.4.5-2 when I click on my connection "Telia Standard 2 E220" in NM. It is set up to not connect automaticly.
