Hi, thank you for your report - nicely written as well! I can confirm the issue on Xenial. OTOH I can also confirm it working on Artful.
That known I was spawning Yakkety and Zesty guests as well to see where it was fixed. It is already fixed even back to Yakkety. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1696623 Title: macvtap creation issue using net namespaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1696623/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
