Comment 7 for bug 301593

If anyone is still using Intrepid, does not use nor require the new features of NetworkManager 0.7 such as "Mobile Broadband" and "DSL", and wants to revert to network-manager-pptp as it was in Hardy, I've created "new" versions of the five related packages with version numbers such that they are "newer" than 0.7, but are actually the same packages and versions which were in Hardy. I've tested them as well as I can and would like volunteers for additional testing. I did not sign these packages, so you will have to understand what that means. To become a volunteer tester, do these steps:

1. Add the following to Software Sources:
deb http://www2.nau.edu/wal2/NetworkManager/ ./

2. Use update-manager or synaptic to check the software channels for new updates or reload the package information

3. The "new" versions of the five packages are shown below
libnm-glib0 0.7+0.6.6
libnm-util0 0.7+0.6.6
network-manager 0.7+0.6.6
network-manager-gnome 0.7+0.6.6
network-manager-pptp 0.7+0.6.5

4. Install all five packages

5. Reboot, just be safe, and if you previously used network-manager-pptp under Hardy, it should look exactly like it did in Hardy. If you had not previously used network-manager-pptp under Hardy, take a look at the configuration dialogs.

6. Set up your favorite pptp connection and test it.
