Title:
networkmanager requires pppoe but it is not in "requires"
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
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.
