[Touch-packages] [Bug 1915903] Re: Up-to-date net-tools package tells me to recompile it
Hello! I do apologise. I spend half my time talking to BSD systems and `netstat -f inet` is equivalent to `netstat --protocol=inet` on Ubuntu. Indeed, as you point out I should probably be using `ip route show`. I tend to use `netstat` because its output is much easier to read. So this is probably a very low priority problem in a deprecated package, that can only be found by mistake.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1915903] Re: Up-to-date net-tools package tells me to recompile it
Hello Richard and thanks for this bug report. According to the manpage the -f option is equivalent to the --rfcomm long option, which isn't really well documented. Just to check: are you actually trying to use netstat in rfcomm mode? My impression is that --rfcomm is a legacy option superseded by --protocol, which allows to explicitly specify the desired protocol. In general I can't match `netstat -f inet` with the command synopsis in the manpage. Were you perhaps meaning `netstat -p inet`? Please note that while the net-tools are fully supported in Ubuntu (they're in "main"), they're considered deprecated and tools from the iproute2 package should be used instead. The replacement for netstat is normally the 'ss' tool. Unless you have specific requirements my suggestion is to start using the "new" (> 10 years old) tools from the beginning. ** Changed in: net-tools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to net-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1915903 Title: Up-to-date net-tools package tells me to recompile it Status in net-tools package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Attempting to run netstat -f inet results in netstat: feature `AF BLUETOOTH' not supported.
