What does occur with 2.4.7?
(In reply to Pacho Ramos from comment #3) > What does occur with 2.4.7? the same, segfaults all the time
If this can still be reproduced with 2.5.0 please file an issue on github on the project page for ppp (https://github.com/ppp-project/ppp) - add a link reference here, and @jkroonza on the report there. Busy tracking some other issues too so might be able to get to this as well, but you need to be able to reproduce still.
