I need this for docker. I have docker services in which I use
variables and I want to pass the always updated ip variable. If the
network goes, it is not a problem, it will always have the same fixed
static ip. But this way I leave docker generalized for any pc.

This was at the bottom of the message you replied to. :)

In general: pay a little attention to where you leave your email address.
Just because there is a form, doesn't mean you should fill it in and then
submit...


Mvg, Guus Snijders

Indeed, either a package or place it in /etc. /usr/lib is managed by
pacman, so custom files there will cause confusion.
Also, systemd has an hierarchy in /etc for exactly this reason...
