--- Begin Message ---Package: vmdebootstrap Version: 1.7-1 Hello, The manpage says | --systemd-networkd | Use Predictable Network Interface Names | | --no-systemd-networkd | Do not use Predictable Network Interface Names using systemd-networkd. But this is very confusing -- networkd has nothing at all to do with predictable network interface naming. This is done by udev, and happens independently of networkd (or NM, or ifupdown). AFAIU the code, --systemd-networkd does if self.settings['systemd-networkd']: network.systemd_support(rootdir) network.enable_systemd_resolved(rootdir) and def systemd_support(self, rootdir): """ Handle the systemd-networkd setting """ if self.settings['systemd-networkd']: self.enable_systemd_networkd(rootdir) else: self.mask_udev_predictable_rules(rootdir) So in addition this also enables resolved (which is again an independent component). So IMHO these options should either be split into --enable-networkd, --enable-resolved, and --disable-ifnames; or (this presumably makes more sense) the documentation should be clarified to something like: | --systemd-networkd | Use networkd, resolved, and ifnames (predictable network interface names) | | --no-systemd-networkd | Use ifupdown to manage eth0 and disable ifnames Thanks for considering, Martin -- Martin Pitt | http://www.piware.de Ubuntu Developer (www.ubuntu.com) | Debian Developer (www.debian.org)
