1 I emerged a bunch of stuff this morning, and got this:
2
3 --begin--
4 * Gentoo is moving toward common configuration file for all network
5 * interfaces. Thus starting from >=ppp-2.4.3-r10 the following files
6 * are obsoleted and should be removed to avoid future confusion:
7 * /etc/conf.d/net.ppp0 - conflict with baselayout
8 * /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 - conflict with baselayout
9 * /etc/ppp/chat-default - unused by this version
10 * /etc/ppp/options-pppoe - unused by this version
11 * /etc/ppp/options-pptp - unused by this version
12
13 * If you use the old net.ppp0 script, you need to:
14 * - upgrade to >=sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre11
15 * - set ppp0 parameters in /etc/conf.d/net (see example file)
16 * - remove conflicting files
17 * - upgrade net-dialup/ppp
18 ---end---

20 I looked at /etc/conf.d/net.example and to me it's woefully unclear how I port
21 my /etc/init.d/net.ppp0 to the new file/format. Any pointers to more
22 information would be welcome.
