--- Begin Message ---Package: src:linux Version: 4.7.2-1 Severity: normal PPTP VPN has stopped working in 4.7 kernel. Worked just fine in 4.6. I did some limited debugging, without much success. It seems ppp_mppe module is not loaded on demand, and also loading it manually doesn't help at all.

It also seems to be an intentional change (read further comments there). I think you'll need to explicitly load the nf_conntrack_pptp module, e.g. by listing it in a file under /etc/modules-load.d.
