Really? Do you add/choose a particular package group for it? Or do you
visit potential groups in search for "ppp" and place a checkmark next to
"ppp" there?

Or do you rely on the default install to include PPP support?
As I've shown, there is no "Networking" group, but there is the
"Dial-up Networking Support" group.
