with the upgrade from 251.6-1 to 252~rc3-2 ethernet interfaces
connected via USB do not get renamed anymore to have a mac based
interface name (enxMAC) but there name instead is ethX. Downgrading to
251.6-1 fixes the problem. Both versions have

% cat /lib/systemd/network/73-usb-net-by-mac.link
[Match]
Path=*-usb-*

[Link]
NamePolicy=mac

and this is policy does not seem to be overwritten subsequently.

Thanks for your bug report.

This appears to be an upstream regression, it would thus be good if you can raise it https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/new

A verbose debug log from a boot might be helpful as well.

I'd include a dump of `udevadm info /sys/class/net/<iface>` in this bug report as well.
