Package: snort
Version: 2.7.0-20.4
Severity: normal

Snort package during installation can't detect proper interface. Reason
is czech (generally foreign) environment. Shell script try to find word
"UP" in ifconfig output, but this word is translated to other language!
Therefore script function faild (check_interfaces() in snort.config).

Please, find some realiable way how to detect interface up and ready
(maybe ip command)?
