[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#567453: network-manager: PPPoE regression after upgrade from v0.7.2

[Teodor MICU]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.7.999-2
Severity: important

Hi,

I've upgraded network-manager* packages (hoping to solve some issues with VPN
connections) but after reboot I cannot connect to the ISP over a PPPoE link:
