Subject: dhcp-probe doesn't find network interfaces
Package: dhcp-probe
Version: 1.3.0-2
Justification: renders package unusable
Severity: grave

When starting dhcp_probe (via init.d script or not), I get in syslog :
> dhcp_probe[17563]: starting, version 1.3.0
> dhcp_probe[17563]: get_myipaddr: couldn't locate interface eth1
> dhcp_probe[17563]: couldn't determine IP addr for interface eth1
> dhcp_probe[17563]: exiting

By hacking the C code, I found that dhcp_probe sees four interfaces
named "lo", "", "", and "#002" !...

I don't know how to fix this bug.
