ifupdown handles the passed names correctly, but it looks like iproute2
is very unhappy about something in these long names like
"enx000be608397d:1"; when setting the label for the address. Since the
label must match the device and it otherwise works with "eth1:1", I'll
looking into the iproute2 code now.
** Package changed: ifupdown (Ubuntu) => iproute2 (Ubuntu)
** Changed in: iproute2 (Ubuntu)
