Package: firestarter
Version: 1.0.1-1
Severity: normal


Firestarter setup would be simplified if it probed for the default route
instead of forcing the (possibly non-technical) user to guess the
correct interface name.

This could be accomplished in simple cases by defaulting to the
interface used for the "default route" in the local routing table.

Ex:

"haplo:/home/lydickaw# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use
Iface
192.168.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0
eth1
0.0.0.0         192.168.0.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0
eth1"

On my laptop, "eth1" would be the correct choice.

Obviously, this would break when switching between wired and wireless
connection and on machines that connect via ppp, however choosing a
sensible default wouldn't preclude any of these scenarios, while
making life easy in the simple cases.

Thanks,

Adam
