The attachment "iproute2_4.14.1-0ubuntu3.debdiff" seems to be a debdiff. The ubuntu-sponsors team has been subscribed to the bug report so that they can review and hopefully sponsor the debdiff. If the attachment isn't a patch, please remove the "patch" flag from the attachment, remove the "patch" tag, and if you are member of the ~ubuntu-sponsors, unsubscribe the team.

Adding -colorauto patch to ip. It allows the behavior requested. Tested build and install on bionic. Will in parallel work on sending the patch upstream. ** Patch added: "iproute2_4.14.1-0ubuntu3.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iproute2/+bug/1691214/+attachment/5057558/+files/iproute2_4.14.1-0ubuntu3.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1691214 Title: Consider enabling --color by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iproute2/+bug/1691214/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1691214] Re: Consider enabling --color by default
Hi Jeremy, the difference of this and the tools we already do so is a hard enable vs auto mode. The cases we already have are handling --color=auto to only add color if running on a terminal. Instead the --color of ip is a hard enable. So if you e.g. do: $ ip --color a > /tmp/foo Or if we would set up an alias $ ip a > /tmp/foo Then the file would contain control chars which no on wants (and could break parsing/monitoring). I checked latest upstream git of iproute and it still is that way. So I'd assume the best would be to file a bug upstream and link it here - what do you think Jeremy? ** Tags added: needs-upstream-report -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1691214 Title: Consider enabling --color by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iproute2/+bug/1691214/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
