Please document this change.
Technically, the dependency was the only thing I fixed, but I see your point. I'll spin another version. Someday I hope to add "freebsd-ppp [kfreebsd-any]" (if that works) to the same dependency lists as ppp, once real support is solved and added. Just to prevent wasted time with my build testing (since my machines are slow) here's the text I plan to use in changelog: --- a/debian/changelog +++ b/debian/changelog @@ -1,8 +1,11 @@ -barry (0.18.3-4) unstable; urgency=low +barry (0.18.3-5) unstable; urgency=low - * Fixed dependency on ppp for kfreebsd (Closes: #678233) + * Removed dependency on ppp for kfreebsd, since kernel side pppd is not + available, and freebsd-ppp is not fully supported yet.
