It shouldn't have to. It ought to be in one of the base packages, such as
base-files or netbase. Yours is not the first such report I've seen. I
suggest that you file a bug against netbase.

Out of curiosity and not because I know, can you not download the packages

Run pppconfig as root and answer the questions. Then use 'pon' to connect

I just got mine in the mail and didn't have to pay any brokerage fees. My
copy was shipped from some place on the east coast in the US even though I
ordered it through the Stormix web site.
