Bug Description
I have updated recently my system from utopic to vivid, and since that moment pptpd stopped working.
From what i understand, pptpd needs to be built against pppd version 2.4.6. This has been fixed in pptpd version 1.4.0-2, as reported here:

I tested with the current pptpd stable package from Debian (1.4.0-5) and it fixed the issue.
