-
-* Fixes for CVE-2020-8597 and CVE-2015-3310.
-
-* libpcap is now required when compiling on Linux (previously, if
- libpcap was not present, pppd would be compiled without packet
- filtering support).
-
-* The rp-pppoe plugin has been renamed to pppoe, to distinguish it
- from the upstream rp-pppoe code. Its options have changed names,
- but the old names are kept as aliases.
-
-* The configure script now supports cross-compilation.
-
-* Many bug fixes and cleanups.
-
-
-What was new in ppp-2.4.8.
-**************************
-
-* New pppd options have been added:
- - ifname, to set the name for the PPP interface device
- - defaultroute-metric, to set the metric for the default route
- - defaultroute6, to add an IPv6 default route (with nodefaultroute6
- to prevent adding an IPv6 default route)
- - up_sdnotify, to have pppd notify systemd when the link is up.
-
-* The rp-pppoe plugin has new options:
- - host-uniq, to set the Host-Uniq value to send
- - pppoe-padi-timeout, to set the timeout for discovery packets
- - pppoe-padi-attempts, to set the number of discovery attempts.
-
-* Added the CLASS attribute in radius packets.
-
-* Sundry bug fixes.
-
-* Fixed warnings and issues found by static analysis.
-
-* Added Submitting-patches.md.
-
-
-What was new in ppp-2.4.7.
-**************************
-
-* Fixed a potential security issue in parsing option files (CVE-2014-3158).
-
-* There is a new "stop-bits" option, which takes an argument of 1 or 2,
- indicating the number of stop bits to use for async serial ports.
-
-* Various bug fixes.
-
-
-What was new in ppp-2.4.6.
-**************************
-
-* Man page updates.
-
-* Several bug fixes.
-
-* Options files can now set and unset environment variables for
- scripts.
-
-* The timeout for chat scripts can now be taken from an environment
- variable.
-
-* There is a new option, master_detach, which allows pppd to detach
- from the controlling terminal when it is the multilink bundle master
- but its own link has terminated, even if the nodetach option has
- been given.
-
-
-What was new in ppp-2.4.5.
-**************************
-
-* Under Linux, pppd can now operate in a mode where it doesn't request
- the peer's IP address, as some peers refuse to supply an IP address.
- Since Linux supports device routes as well as gateway routes, it's
- possible to have no remote IP address assigned to the ppp interface
- and still route traffic over it.
-
-* Pppd now works better with 3G modems that do strange things such as
- sending IPCP Configure-Naks with the same values over and over again.
-
-* The PPP over L2TP plugin is included, which works with the pppol2tp
- PPP channel code in the Linux kernel. This allows pppd to be used
- to set up tunnels using the Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol.
-
-* A new 'enable-session' option has been added, which enables session
- accounting via PAM or wtwp/wtmpx, as appropriate. See the pppd man
- page for details.
-
-* Several bugs have been fixed.
