This is a patched version of pppd, which provides a module (pppoe.so) to use kernel-pppoe. If this module is not used (not in the options) pppd behaves like the unpatched version. (at least according to the author). The ebuild-script is only slightly modified: * another download-location (from roaring-penguin), they provide an already patched version * added HOMEPAGE * added 2 Makefile-changes, to accept compiler-flags (pppd/plugins/Makefile and pppd/plugins/pppoe/Makefile) * install 5 more files with doins * added an additional doc-file (the html-page from where I downloaded the patched pppd) This site is a wget from the site specified in HOMEPAGE * added a note (einfo) in postinstall which asks the user to read this added doc-file if he wants to activate kernel-pppoe I hope I did not forget anything. The headers maybe not correct.

ok, added. Thanks! Maybe you should become a Gentoo Linux developer :)
