Dear Maintainer,

I upgraded a virtual machine (xen guest) from Debian 11 to bookworm, everything went well, but lost network on reboot. The interface had changed its name from eth0 to enX0, I guess due to this change in systemd v 250:

* The predictable naming logic for network interfaces has been extended to generate stable names from Xen netfront device information.

(ref: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/releases/tag/v250 )

I wonder if it would be nice to mention this in the systemd NEWS file or in the release notes, so people do the needed changes in their machines before rebooting the system after upgrade.

Sending this bug to release-notes but CC'ng pkg-systemd-maintainers@
Thanks!

Hi Laura,

I'm not sure about all the possible cases where this issue would need to be 
handled (and probably there are different 'ways' like changing the name in all 
the files where the interface is referenced, or disabling the predictable 
naming scheme) so a generic text as you propose looks the best to me.

I just pushed the changes that should cover this issue.

Thanks for your attention.

Paul
