[arch-general] unable to select ppp package when installing 2008.04-rc
I have tried once or twice, even if you select all four catogaries and all packages, I don't see ppp listed there. I don't check it one by one but by press P, so I don't know if anyone can confirm it too. It's in the CD though. PPP is import package for one using adsl connection etc.

Yes, I know it's in the core, it's here, but I can' find it in "select packages" step, that's why I ask for confirmation. Ok, I will take the rc iso cd, and try again. Thanks all dudes.

It's not there, anyone could try, I can only use chroot, or manually
install it after reboot. so this is a bug definiitely.

Probably this is because packages.txt file is incorrect. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

Oh, I checked, it's here in "support" section of packages.txt. I must boot the cd up, and check again.

Weird problem. only if you select support first or alone, packages in support catogary can show in the list (which is eventually installed). If you select base -> devel->libs->supports (or select another than supports first) like most of people do, no luck.
