I think your case suggests that it is, so you might want to take up the issue on a developer list such as debian-cd or debian-testing, or just file a bug report. In the meantime you can find the dependancies of ppp using the command "apt-cache depends ppp" and install each of those dependancies before you installing ppp and pppconfig. Here is the output I get on Sarge: $ apt-cache depends ppp ppp Depends: libc6 Depends: libpam0g Depends: libpcap0.7 Depends: zlib1g Depends: libpam-modules Depends: libpam-runtime Depends: netbase Depends: procps Depends: makedev Suggests: libatm1 Conflicts: <ppp-pam> Conflicts: <ppp-udeb> Conflicts: pppdcapiplugin Replaces: <ppp-pam> Replaces: <ppp-udeb> Thanks for clarifying the issue. I wait till the final version come out hoping that it will include the package. In the mean time I take up the issue on the developer-testing list or file a bug report as you suggested.
