Re: [arch-general] [arch-announce] Deprecation of net-tools

That is correct. net-utils could be made an optdepend, or the support could just be removed entirely. IIRC the iproute/netutils code was separate and equivalent. It's been a while since I've looked though. On Thu, 09 Jun 2011 15:11 -0600, "Thomas S Hatch" <thatch45@gmail.com> wrote:

Does netcfg still need net-tools? or can it be an opt depends? It was my understanding that it only used ip unless specified otherwise.
