Re: Bug#648361: uninstallable on kfreebsd-amd64
Hi
After some research I have found out the following thing from a forum
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2005-June/090529.html
"http://www.mreriksson.net/howtos/netbsd-pptp-client/
which discusses how to set up pptpclient on NetBSD and
there he mentioned about installing the PPPD-MPPE
package which I did't do in my FreeBSD box since I
failed to find the said pacakge in /usr/ports. I have
a slight idea that I really need to have this
installed because when I look at the properties ..."
Based on this it looks like we have a dependency on a pppd-mppe
package that I guess is not available in Debian kFreeBSD port.
Or am I wrong here?
Due to this I have decided to solve this bug by changing from
any to linux-any instead until someone can confirm that this
actually works.
Best regards,
// Ola
