line 119 in `which net-setup` contains a line which is missing the \ at the end, therefore the output error from the next line gets into /etc/conf.d/net file tested with what seems to be the latest livecd iso at this time: install-amd64-minimal-20141204.iso Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. execute net-setup enp0s3 (if inside virtualbox) 2. fill in all the required info (2,2 manual ip, wired network, no dhcp) 3. look inside /etc/conf.d/net Actual Results: cat /etc/conf.d/net # This network configuration was written by net-setup config_enp0s3=( "192.168.169.200 broadcast 192.168.169.255 netmask /usr/sbin/net-setup: line 120: --inputbox: command not found" ) routes_enp0s3=( "default via 192.168.169.193" ) Expected Results: cat /etc/conf.d/net # This network configuration was written by net-setup config_enp0s3=( "192.168.169.200 broadcast 192.168.169.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 ") routes_enp0s3=( "default via 192.168.169.193" ) Could someone tell me where can I find net-setup ? using portage(something like equery b net-setup ; but this won't work) or the link to this file online? Thanks.
I see net-setup is still producing old bash arrays config files - that means we need to fix it.
net-setup is part of livecd-tools[1]. [1] - git://git.overlays.gentoo.org/proj/livecd-tools.git

Created attachment 393946 [details, diff] Drop bash arrays and allow using ifconfig or iproute2 syntax This patch stops using bash arrays for the network configuration, which have been obsolete for a few years now, and allows using ifconfig or iproute2 syntax and commands to configure the network.

My thought is that we can go more simple. Since iproute2 is now in @system, I would rather just use it. I don't know of a reason that a user would want to request to use ifconfig. If there is one, let me know.

One more thing I would add is that this patch consists of two logical changes, so we should commit it as two commits. Dropping the bash arrays is a separate issue, which I can apply first.
Latest amd64 minimal installation CD dated on 2015-09-24 still come with broken net-setup. Isn't there any way to fix the problem?
My patch was applied in the livecd-tools repo[1] and that ended up in the 2.1[2] release. That version got to the tree[3] about 1 year ago, so this should be fixed since the beginning of this year.
