Description drserge 2018-01-06 15:00:58 UTC
After a migration to profile 'default/linux/amd64/17.1/no-multilib' pptpd drops incoming connection with logwtmp option enabled with these error messages in logs:
pppd[5901]: /usr/lib/pptpd/pptpd-logwtmp.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
pppd[5901]: Couldn't load plugin /usr/lib/pptpd/pptpd-logwtmp.so
The file 'pptpd-logwtmp.so' is installed to '/usr/lib64/pptpd' directory after a profile migration or rebuild of a package.
The wrong path '/usr/lib/pptpd/pptpd-logwtmp.so' is hardcoded at line 789 in 'pptpctrl.c' pptpd source file.
