   1 pppd: Fix creation of linkpidfile
   2
   3 When pppd is run without "nodetach" or with "updetach", the linkpidfile is
   4 never created. The call to create_linkpidfile() is protected by a check for
   5 linkpidfile[0] but this is only filled in when create_linkpidfile() is called.

   7 This patch changes to code to allways uncondiationally call
   8 create_linkpidfile(), it originated from the Debian project.
