I assume this error is due to my last update to isdn4k-utils-3.7_pre20050626. I have no longer installed a ipppd on my system. It is still included in the distfile /usr/portage/distfiles/isdn4k-utils-CVS-2005-06-26.tar.bz2 (i built it manually to get into the net) so i assume, ipppd should also be within net-dialup/isdn4k-utils. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge net-dialup/isdn4k-utils Actual Results: no ipppd find / -name ipppd returns only: /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/ipppd Expected Results: I need an ipppd to get my Internet up and running ;-) emerge info Portage 2.0.51.22-r2 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.3.5-20050130, glibc-2.3.5-r1, 2.6.13 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.13 i686 Mobile Pentium II Gentoo Base System version 1.6.13 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.18-r1 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=pentium2 -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=pentium2 -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks fixpackages sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo http://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo http://gentoo.mirror.solnet.ch ftp://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/" LINGUAS="de" MAKEOPTS="-j1" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X X509 alsa apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth cdr crypt cups curl divx4linux eds emboss encode esd ethereal fam flac foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gnokii gphoto2 gstreamer gtk gtk2 howl icq imagemagick imap imlib ipv6 irda java jpeg junit kde libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx motif mozilla mp3 mpeg nas ncurses nls octave ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pcmcia pda pdflib perl png pnp python qt quicktime readline samba scanner sdl slang snmp spell ssl svga tcpd tetex tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts usb vorbis wavelan xine xml xml2 xmms xprint xv xvid zlib linguas_de userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
this is strange! Please try to re-emerge isdn4k-utils or test latest isdn4k-utils-3.7_pre20050821 (still ~arch).
use the ipppd useflag
yup, this flag was new in isdn4k-utils-3.7_pre20050626.
ok, I tested isdn4k-utils-3.7_pre20050626 using 'ipppd' use-flag. And ipppd is built and installed after. So I guess, you just forgot to set the 'ipppd' use-flag.
