reopen 325650
reassign 325650 ppp

Looks like a bug in ppp's postinst to me:
O: Setting up ppp (2.4.4rel-1) ...
P: Configuring package ppp
D: Updating ppp to status 3
O: /var/lib/dpkg/info/ppp.postinst: line 41: ./MAKEDEV: No such file or
directory
O: dpkg: error processing ppp (--configure):
O: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
O: dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of pppconfig:
O: pppconfig depends on ppp (>= 2.3.7); however:
O: Package ppp is not configured yet.
O: dpkg: error processing pppconfig (--configure):
O: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
O: dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of pppoeconf:
O: pppoeconf depends on ppp (>= 2.4.2+20040428-2) | pppoe (>= 3.0); however:
O: Package ppp is not configured yet.
O: Package pppoe is not installed.
O: pppoeconf depends on ppp (>= 2.4.1.uus2-4); however:
O: Package ppp is not configured yet.
O: dpkg: error processing pppoeconf (--configure):
O: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
O: Errors were encountered while processing:
O: ppp
O: pppconfig
O: pppoeconf
O: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
D: Return code: 25600
-> Aborting with an error
-> cleaning the build env
-> removing directory /var/cache/pbuilder/build//18172 and its
subdirectories
ppp's postinst script seems to have changed between 2.4.4b1-1.diff.gz and
ppp_2.4.4rel-1.diff.gz from:
# create /dev/ppp if we are not using devfs
if [ ! -c /dev/ppp ]; then
cd /dev && /sbin/MAKEDEV ppp
fi
to:
# create /dev/ppp if we are not using udev
if [ ! -c /dev/ppp ]; then
cd /dev && ./MAKEDEV ppp
fi
I don't know why Marco changed the location of MAKEDEV; it was right
before:
$ dpkg -S MAKEDEV
makedev: /sbin/MAKEDEV
