Modem scripts replaced by eg25-manager by apt-get dist-upgrade
#2
Sometimes reading the source code of both can solve a lot of questions.
https://gitlab.com/mobian1/devices/pinep...em-scripts
https://gitlab.com/mobian1/devices/eg25-manager

Looking at the programming/scripting languages used and how the code itself looks like, my guess is that pinephone-modem-scripts was just a simple script to get around the propertary driver, while eg25-manager is the actual open source replacement.
It happens sometimes within the Linux community when there are only propertary drivers for certain hardware, workarounds or official drivers are being shipped until there's an open source version to replace that.

Basically if it's all working fine (or better), then there's nothing really to be worried about.
