Subject: [gentoo-user] Question about net.ppp0 and layout

Message-Id: 20060905000956.GA25551@waltdnes.org
1 Error messages listed below, but not as clear as I would like. I'm
2 doing an update, and running into problems with net-dialup/ppp, the
3 second last file in the list. Before doing anything rash, like deleting
4 files I need, I'd like to confirm whether I should do it. I do not have
5 ppp come up on dialup. I use dialup as emergency backup for my ADSL
6 connection. I set up the connection with pppconfig, and dial out with
7 pon, enabled for my regular account via /etc/sudoers.
8
9 Should I delete the files, yes or no?
10
11 After this, my next "excellent adventure" will be upgrading to gcc
12 4.1.1.

25 * Gentoo is moving toward common configuration file for all network
26 * interfaces. Thus starting from >=ppp-2.4.3-r10 the following files
27 * are obsoleted and should be removed to avoid future confusion:
28 * /etc/conf.d/net.ppp0 - conflict with baselayout
29 * /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 - conflict with baselayout
30 * /etc/ppp/chat-default - unused by this version
31 * /etc/ppp/options-pppoe - unused by this version
32 * /etc/ppp/options-pptp - unused by this version
33
34 * If you use the old net.ppp0 script, you need to:
35 * - upgrade to >=sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre11
36 * - set ppp0 parameters in /etc/conf.d/net (see example file)
37 * - remove conflicting files
38 * - upgrade net-dialup/ppp
39
40 * If you never used net.ppp0 script, just run the following commands:
41 * rm //etc/conf.d/net.ppp0 //etc/init.d/net.ppp0 //etc/ppp/chat-default //etc/ppp/options-pppoe //etc/ppp/options-pptp
42 * emerge --resume
