Package: shaper
Version: 2.2.12-0.7.3-2.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


When the system has network interfaces with capital letters in their
names, many errors are displayed at shutdown time. For example:

Cannot find device "2:"
RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory
Cannot find device "<BROADCAST,MULT"
Cannot find device "mtu"
Cannot find device "576"
Cannot find device "qdisc"
Cannot find device "pfifo_fast"
Cannot find device "qlen"
Cannot find device "1000"
Cannot find device "3:"

The cause is that the part of the script which parser the output of "ip
link show" does not allow for network interface names containing
capital letters. I have attached a patch which explicitly allows capital
letters in the interface name. It might be worth making the parsing even
more forgiving, since the failure mode is so ugly.

The shaper package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.

For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/500594 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.

Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.

Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
