Package: ppp
Version: 2.4.6-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

whenever I start pppd, it fails with a following message:
~# pon ppp
Couldn't open the /dev/ppp device: No such file or directory
/usr/sbin/pppd: You need to create the /dev/ppp device node by
executing the following command as root:
        mknod /dev/ppp c 108 0

After running mknod command above, pppd starts normally.
I belive it should be automated somehow like it was all the time before. It 
looks like a regression.
