Check this out:

Bash $ locate pptpd.conf
/etc/pptpd.conf
/lib/modprobe.d/pptpd.conf
/usr/share/man/man5/pptpd.conf.5.gz
/var/lib/dpkg/info/pptpd.conffiles
/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_wjbMMF/etc/modprobe.d/pptpd.conf

@ironstorm, like you, my /etc/modprobe.d/pptpd.conf doesn't exist and
/lib/modules-load.d/ doesn't exist either. But inside /lib/modprobe.d/
is pptd.conf .  There is only one line in that configuration file which
simply reads: nf_nat_pptp .  So I invoked: sudo mv
/lib/modprobe.d/pptpd.conf /lib/modprobe.d/pptpd.conf.bak  That fixed my
issue.

It’s also important to note that a few weeks ago I set up a VPN with
Private Internet Access being my VPN service provider.  I used a few
guides but I don’t remember which one instructed me to create a
pptpd.conf . For the better part of the last half hour I went on a
search party through bookmarks and Chrome history for the guide, no
dice.  I don’t know why I created that file.  But after moving the file
to /lib/modprobe.d/pptpd.conf.bak , $ sudo apt-get upgrade works without
the errors reported here.
