No. You are expected either to use "ifup dsl-provider" or ask the ppp maintainer what he has though before throwing out the "auto-interface-up" patch from the ppp package without any good reasons or a working solution to achieve the same functionality. OTOH I expect him to say the F word and close this bug immediately... that is too sad.
