Actually that kernel module looks like it is provided by the kernel package.
Typo? Should it require kmod(l2tp_ppp) instead of kmod(l2tp_ppp.ko) ?
Hmm, it seems to have been added into the base kernel package between
3.10.0-327.22.2.el7.x86_64 and 3.10.0-327.28.2.el7.x86_64
but regardless, it seems to give the error:
error: Failed dependencies:
kmod(l2tp_ppp.ko) is needed by xl2tpd-1.3.8-1.el7.centos.x86_64
error: Failed dependencies:
kmod(l2tp_ppp) is needed by xl2tpd-1.3.8-1.el7.centos.x86_64
A yum search reveals no package providing either of them. So I guess this is a kernel
packaging bug?

I mean, I can surely work around the kernel packaging bug. But in the end, this is not an
xl2tpd bug.
