thanks

According to http://release.debian.org/sarge_rc_policy.txt

   - Packages must include a "Depends:" line listing any other packages
     they require for operation, unless those packages are marked
     "Essential: yes".

I had the same problem and had to install the iproute package, which
fixed it.

It seems to me that this should be added to the Depends so that is is
installed automatically, so I'm attaching a patch to that effect against
guessnet 0.35-1.

By the way, this package has been a great help to me, thanks for
maintaining it.

Dave.
