Please, forget that note.

Ubuntu should "just work" without recompile anything to get pptp
support, that note it's an obsolete one that was not removed on time.

That's the theory, unfortunately I was not able to validate the mppe
encryption support so I cannot tell you that it will work for sure,
without it, it works for me.

Cheers.
