Bug Description

Binary package hint: ppp-udeb

Hello,

The ppp-udeb package used to be available on the alternate install CD up to 8.10. Since 9.04 (and up to 9.10-alpha4) this package is no longer on the CD image. Because of that, installation over a ppp line is no longer possible. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/anna/+bug/362989 might be related.

ppp-udeb is still missing in 9.10. Any chances that it will be included again?

ppp-udeb is furthermore missing in 10.04, 10.10 and 11.04

On account of this, we are in an awkward position not be able to set up a new ppp router.

Is there any chance to get it back?

It is still missing in 14.04. This is ridiculous. Debian installer has no problems with pppoe support in and "friendly" Ubuntu one has. What a shame.
