No, but that's not the point. If the user asked for it, there's no reason why it should be made impossible for him to use it. Feel free to add a README.ifrename to the udev package, with an explanation of why you think it's a bad idea, a suggestion what a user _could_ try to make it less of a problem (if any such suggestion is available), and a statement that bugs about interference with ifrename will be closed with (at most) a pointer to that file; but I don't see why you shoul _forbid_ people to use it after being duly warned. -- Fun will now commence -- Seven Of Nine, "Ashes to Ashes", stardate 53679.4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
