Package: ocsinventory-agent
Version: 2:2.0.5-1.2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
in order to get information about network interfaces ocsinventory-agent
runs ifconfig and tries to parse its output. Due to the update of
net-tools to version 1.60+git20161116.90da8a0 the output format of
ifconfig changed. Consequently ocsinventory-agent fails to gather
network interface information. I patched the regular expressions in the
parsing routine, which solved the problem for me. I believe the patched
version works equally in Jessie and Stretch.
Please consider classifying net-tools as a dependendy or at least
'recommended package' since net-tools is only optional in Stretch.
