Comment (by gabriel):
I think it's a good solution. I think another important thing is to
install iproute2 without ifcfg by "default".
So the LFS user will read about ifcfg by the comment and will know the
iputils dependence. Users that don't read the comments will end in a good
iproute2 installation beacause the ifcfg won't be installed.
Just a suggestion: I don't know, but of course there is a reason to avoid
ifconfig installation at chapter 6.40 ("Inetutils-1.5"). But most linux
distributions use ifconfig to set IP... maybe LFS can install it.
