For some reason there is no 'dip' group in your system. Add an entry by
appending the line 'dip:*:30:' to '/etc/group'.
Make sure that group id 30 is not used by other group (search for ':30:' in
the file) in such case change it to any non used group id number you like.
Once this is done, you can safely reconfigure the ppp package.
As root execute:
dpkg --configure ppp
