Package: ifscheme
Version: 1.7-2
Severity: normal
I have something like
# /etc/network/interfaces
allow-hotplug eth0
mapping eth0
script ifscheme-mapping
following the example in /usr/share/doc/ifscheme/README.ifscheme (the second
one). This worked nicely from the command line, but it does not work in
udev's /lib/udev/net.agent script, presumably because it does not export the
PATH to /sbin.
To make things worse, ifup does not complain at all about a nonexistent
script (even with --verbose) and udev does not check the exit status or
output of ifup. Those are the real bugs IMO, and maybe we can Cc this report
to ifupdown and udev? But it would help if we could update ifscheme's
documentation to always specify a full path to the mapping script. The
following works nicely, for example
allow-hotplug eth0
mapping eth0
script /sbin/ifscheme-mapping
TIA,
Clemens
