Package: ppp
Version: 2.4.6-2
Hi,
pppd doesn't work unless I manually modprobe the ppp_async module. This
is easily fixed by adding ppp_async to /etc/modules, but shouldn't this
happen automatically?
$ sudo wvdial
[sudo] password for jch:

Yes. I expect that you are experiencing #749021.
Anyway, it is not pppd's job to load kernel modules.
