Package: ppp
Version: 2.4.3-20050321+2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Hej,
/etc/ppp/{ip-down,ip-up,ipv6-down,ipv6-up} log stdout and stderr of
the scripts to /var/log/ppp-ipupdown.log if it exists, by using

exec >> /var/log/ppp-ipupdown.log 2>&1

however /etc/ppp/ip-up is broken and uses

exec > /var/log/ppp-ipupdown.log 2>&1

which overwrites the log instead of appending. This still applies to
the latest version, 2.4.4b1-1.

No, it's designed to only log the last session.
