After recently upgrading my system to Ubuntu 10.04, I had the same problem: Broadband connection did not work, NetworkManager complained about: pppd options error, and pppd said:: Plugin /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.4/nm-pppd-plugin.so is for pppd version 2.4.5, this is 2.4.5 Weirdly, /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.4/nm-pppd-plugin.so was identical to /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.5/nm-pppd-plugin.so
This apparently very version-sensitive plugin architecture seems to be pretty broken. As someone wrote in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=548520#c20 "If ppp updates to 2.4.6 tomorrow, then you'll be right back in the same problem." This bug has cost me many precious hours, and still I do not have a good solution, which is pretty frustrating for end-users like me My current workaround is to manually downgrade to ppp 2.4.4, network-manager0.7, libnm-util0 0.7 where trying to satisfy all the resulting dependency problems is a pain in the butt :-( ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #548520 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=548520 -- 3G network time out https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/329228 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
