Hi, sorry, I really don't have anything valuable to add (and I have no idea which kernel versions changed the behavior). However, if you want me to try out a new solution at some point I'll be happy to do so.
Just for the record, I use the following configuration which works fine for my case: iface br0 inet static address 10.1.2.3/24 pre-up ip link add $IFACE address 02:01:00:03:04:05 type bridge post-down ip link delete $IFACE type bridge Thanks Lukas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
