Package: pptp-linux
Version: 1.7.2-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

After upgrading from 1.7.0, I discovered that I could no longer connect
to my company's VPN.  After a quick debug session on IRC with Quozl, it
was determined that this was due to the require-mppe-128 option no
longer being the default.

It would be nice if this were mentioned in a NEWS.Debian so that others
who encounter such upgrade (eg. etch->lenny) issues have something to help
them out.

Thanks,
--Joe

This bug has been in limbo for so many years I consider it the saner
approach to close it without any further action.

For future reference, the change was documented in ChangeLog
