Public bug reported: networkmanager switched from using ppp to using pppoe binary for dsl/pppoe connections, I am using pppoe and I can't connect to the Internet unless I install "pppoe" package.
From: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?h=nm-0-9-10&id=7955806a02db64b20079267743056d7d9d45af3b "for now, work around this by using the userland pppoe client rather than the kernel code" One way to fix it is to include pppoe Another way is to configure --with-pppoe=/usr/sbin/pppd. I think this is urgent as pppoe/dsl on all vivid machines will be broken out-of-the-box. ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1446689 Title: networkmanager requires pppoe but it is not in "requires" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1446689/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
