Description Matthias Vill 2007-06-23 14:03:38 UTC

* Checking for suitable kernel configuration options...
 *   CONFIG_PPP_MPPE_MPPC:       missing MPPE/MPPC encryption/compression (optional, mostly used by PPTP links)
 *   CONFIG_PPPOE:       missing PPPoE support (optional needed by rp-pppoe plugin)
 *   CONFIG_PPPOATM:     missing PPPoA support (optional, needed by pppoatm plugin)

My Kernel does not have these options configureable, but there are:
CONFIG_PPP_MPPE, CONFIG_PPPOE and CONFIG_PPP_ASYNC

I guess these options got renamend since the writing of the ebuild.
My Kernel Version is: 2.6.20-hardened-r2

1) CONFIG_PPP_MPPE_MPPC is used only when mppe-mppc useflag is enabled; otherwise, the option is CONFIG_PPP_MPPE
2) CONFIG_PPPOATM != CONFIG_PPP_ASYNC

Please read the ebuild more carefully, All options are there and all are explained. Closing as invalid.

I'm sorry... guess I was tired or so...
