The Point to Point Protocol for Linux

Edit Package ppp

The ppp package contains the PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) daemon,
pppd, additional PPP utilities, documentation, and sample files. PPP
provides a method for transmitting IP and IPX datagrams over serial
point-to-point links, for example over a modem. The PPP daemon handles
the details of setting up a PPP link including configuring the network
interface and performing the PPP negotiations.

- Update to version 2.5.0. This release is a major release of pppd
  which contains breaking changes for third-party plugins, a
  complete revamp of the build-system and that allows for
  flexibility of configuring features as needed.
  * CVE-2022-4603, bsc#1218251: improper validation of array index
    of the component pppdump
  * Support for PEAP authentication
  * Support for loading PKCS12 certificate envelopes
  * Adoption of GNU Autoconf / Automake build environment
  * Support for pkgconfig
  * Bunch of fixes and cleanup to PPPoE and IPv6 support
  * Major revision to PPPD's Plugin API
  * Lots of internal fixes and cleanups for Radius and PPPoE
  * Dropped IPX support, as Linux has dropped it in version 5.15
  * Pppd is no longer installed setuid-root
  * New pppd options:
    - ipv6cp-noremote, ipv6cp-nosend, ipv6cp-use-remotenumber,
      ipv6-up-script, ipv6-down-script
    - -v, show-options
    - usepeerwins, ipcp-no-address, ipcp-no-addresses, nosendip
  * On Linux, any baud rate can be set on a serial port provided
    the kernel serial driver supports that.
- Obsoleted patches:
  * ppp-lib64.patch
  * ppp-compiling-with-clang-encounters-an-error-in-eap-tls..patch
  * ppp-pie.patch
