I'm not sure you can do the Breaks part of that as it would have to be
like this:

Breaks: ppp-abi-version-2.4.4, ppp-abi-version-2.4.5,
ppp-abi-version-2.4.7, ppp-abi-version-2.4.8...

I don't know if versioned provides work well enough to do this, but how about:

Provides: ppp-abi (= N)

Breaks: ppp-abi (!= N)
