Is there a technical reason for this change, or just personal preference?

This breaks the build across versions, since each official tarball release
will contain the sources in a "barry-<version>" directory name. As it is,
the same spec file can be used for each new version as long as the
Version: field is updated.

It would be great if this was conditional on the existence of configure.
If configure already exists, it shouldn't require autoconf to build.

Only the binary packages will know where they installed pppob, which is
in /usr/sbin by default.
The intention was for people to test pppob, using a stock ppp options file,
copied from the source tree, so we could test and make sure it worked.
Some people might install the CVS pppob elsewhere, so I just meant, change
that part of the options file, but please test with one as close to
mine as possible. If changes are needed, I want to know.

The buildgen.sh idea is good. Thanks very much for your testing.
Were you able to get tethered modem support working on your system?
