Package: iproute Version: 20120105-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
"ip l" started failing a few weeks ago: [skynet](0) $ ip -o l RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory Error talking to the kernel [skynet](1) $ oddly enough, "ip link" operates as expected: [skynet](1) $ ip -o link 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN \ link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,PROMISC,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP qlen 1000\ link/ether 00:25:22:bc:b1:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: e100: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN qlen 1000\ link/ether 00:07:e9:09:c5:23 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 4: irda0: <NOARP,PROMISC,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 2048 qdisc pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 8\ link/irda c3:20:b8:be brd ff:ff:ff:ff 5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,PROMISC,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000\ link/ether 00:c0:ca:4f:e3:b2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 6: tap0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,PROMISC,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 100\ link/ether c6:34:c1:4a:ff:54 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff [skynet](0) $ The failure seemed to be concurrent with the replacement of libnl-3 with libnl-3-200, though the current ip(8) doesn't appear to be linked to libnl at all. Perhaps the old one was? Regardless, "ip l" used to work exactly link "ip link". Note that "ip a", for instance, works like "ip addr". -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0+ (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages iproute depends on: ii libc6 2.13-24 ii libdb5.1 5.1.29-1 Versions of packages iproute recommends: pn libatm1 <none> Versions of packages iproute suggests: pn iproute-doc <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
