Package: farpd
Version: 0.2-9
Severity: normal

farpd won't run unless an IP address is assigned to the selected interface.

#v+
# ip link show eth1 | grep ether | tr '[0-9]' 'f'
    link/ether ff:ff:fe:ff:fb:ff brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

# /usr/sbin/farpd -i eth1 10.0.0.0/8
farpd: bad interface configuration: not IP or Ethernet

# ip address add 10.10.10.10/24 dev eth1

# /usr/sbin/farpd -i eth1 10.0.0.0/8
arpd[8786]: listening on eth1: arp and (dst net 10.0.0.0/8) and not ether src 
00:16:3e:3f:3b:f3
#v-

As a workaround for this bug an IP address can be removed from the interface _after_ the start of farpd.
