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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1571295 Title: pptpd module config loaded at wrong location To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pptpd/+bug/1571295/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
