Description Krzysztof Olędzki 2010-09-28 10:17:47 UTC 
Changes included in baselayout-1.12.14 introduced inifinite loop in rcscripts/net/iproute2.sh.

Two important functions were changed from:
--- cut here ---
ip() {
        LC_ALL=C /sbin/ip "$@"
}
iproute2_tunnel() {
        LC_ALL=C /sbin/ip tunnel "$@"
}
--- cut here ---

to:

--- cut here ---
ip() {
        LC_ALL=C ip "$@"
}
iproute2_tunnel() {
        LC_ALL=C ip tunnel "$@"
}
--- cut here ---

So now, ip() calls itself. :(
