I am pretty much clueless, in general; however, I might report that I,
too, recently experienced this same breakdown in all of the net
interfaces on one of my machines. This appeared after a massive
update to a ~x86 system involving over 700MB of downloads. It took
several days to perform the update, and --- albeit I cannot pinpoint
the exact cause of my griefs (X11 also failed when started from the
enlightenment display manager 'entrance') after I had finally gotten
my network connection established and run all of the following,
everything works again.
