Re: [arch-general] tap device

I guess someone will have to ask about it, either in the mailing list or irc, I haven't done so before because systemd-{nspawn,networkd} have lots of new functionality and I'm not sure I understand them all.

After I related this issue (interfaces not being UP) on the systemd-devel mailing list, Tom Gundersen did a commit yesterday nite to change this behavior. So if you run systemd-git, just upgrade and interfaces will now be UP, and you will be able to get rid of your hack.
