Hi,https://lists.fedoraproject.or
So net-tools has been deprecated a long time at this point with numerous known issues - especially as we enter an IPv6 world.
There was an initial discussion a few months back as can be reviewed here:
g/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxx <https://lists.fedoraproject.odoraproject.org/thread/OATM2PQ LRKNUW54CQRZ33WUNS6WZMPVL/ rg/archives/list/devel@lists.f >edoraproject.org/thread/OATM2P QLRKNUW54CQRZ33WUNS6WZMPVL/ https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/
FESCo agreed with the goal of removing the distributions dependency on net-tools a couple of months ago:
1711 <https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1711 >
In accordance with the mass bug filing process the packages that are affected have been located with `dnf repoquery --all --alldeps --whatrequires net-tools` and the list of maintainers/packagers affected are at the end.
There are also BuildRequires, and I believe they are not covered by this command.
For example python3 BRs /usr/sbin/ifconfig and is not listed.
You're correct that this isn't covering BR situations but I didn't want the scope of this to blow out to the less reasonable.
First phase let's get the package off systems where it's not absolutely required or requested by the user...
Then BR can be cleaned up in the background without affecting user systems.
