I see only libraries in NEEDED and it is probably generated automatically. There is no way for the automatic tools to discover the dependency between pptpd and ppp version.
Besides, even if I would have somehow /usr/lib/ppp/2.4.3 in NEEDED file of the pptpd, the amount of computation needed to discover which package offers such thing would be prohibitive. The reciprocal operation (find which packages use the old path before upgrade) would also be prohibitive.
