The eudev team hasn't discussed it yet, but it's on the agenda for our |
| 17 |
next meeting. I believe that we will be implementing the |
| 18 |
functionality (probably by default) in the eudev software package, but |
| 19 |
we will not be enabling this by default in the eudev ebuilds (at |
| 20 |
least, not any time soon). |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Also of note, though, is that the eudev package (and ebuild) will |
| 23 |
still have available (although not by default) the old legacy |
| 24 |
persistent-net functionality. I am planning to update the rules |
| 25 |
generator for this to use the same attributes as the new method |
| 26 |
though, which should be theoretically more reliable than the old |
| 27 |
attributes. |

Finally, something that wasn't mentioned yet -- if a user has / still |
| 32 |
uses a 75-persistent-net.rules from old udev's, or any custom |
| 33 |
iface-naming rules, then the new 80-net-name-slot.rules will also not |
| 34 |
take effect on any of the interfaces that were named in these other rules. |
