[OE-core] what are OE's options for a PPTP server to use instead of poptop?

  colleague wants to add a PPTP server to image, and is familiar with
poptop which (AFAICT) is not listed in the current "supported" OE
recipes. i found a recipe for it:

http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded/plain/recipes/poptop/poptop_1.3.4.bb

but i note that do_install_append() suggests the logwtmp module is
broken.

  while poking at that, are there more current solutions to provide
the same functionality? i can see "connman" with the option:

  PACKAGECONFIG[pptp] = "--enable-pptp
    --with-pptp=${sbindir}/pptp,--disable-pptp,,pptp-linux"

  i see also accel-ppp, but it claims to be currently blacklisted:

  http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/recipe/2315/

anyway, suggestions for equivalent PPTP servers to poptop? thank you
kindly.
