Debian doesn't install kppp by default since around the beginning of
the 4 series, but did in the 3 series. [0]
We have been trying to install a default set of things that is what most
people would use, and have done some selections.
Of those who have chosen[1] to report their package statistics to debian,
9197 people have libplasma installed
693 people are actively using kppp [2]
8277 people have kppp installed.
I'm actually surprised by these numbers.
/Sune
[0] this might skew the numbers quite much in favour of kppp
[1] popularity contest, popcon, is a opt in scheme. some of the raw data
is available at popcon.debian.org
[2] the number of 'votes' on a given package.
about votes:
Q) What is considered a 'vote' for a package ?
A) A computer 'vote' for a package if according to the data provided
in the report, a program provided or depending on the package was
used less than thirty days ago. This computation is performed by
the popcon server.
