Description Carlo Raudino 2008-12-03 11:03:18 UTC

Description of problem:
I don't understand why it's not available a F10 package of gnome-ppp...

I know everybody use DSL and WLANs... but there are people like me, using netbooks that still need gnome-ppp for connecting via bluetooth to cell phone (and get a mobile connection everywhere) ... and gnome-ppp is the easyiest (and for me the only) way to do it.


Maybe the F9 package will work on F10 (I didn't try it) but I'll love an official F10 build.

Thankyou

No maintainer for it, so it's not included. Also, if you're using bluetooth -> WWAN ... use NetworkManager. (If it doesn't work, let us know, and why.)
