Description bill 2016-10-26 18:41:32 UTC
With the latest netifrc version the interface is not properly setup.
I have a very standard configuration in /etc/conf.d/net

config_enp6s0="192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 brd 192.168.1.255"
routes_enp6s0="default via 192.168.1.1"

And also the following symlink is in place:
ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.enp6s0

Iproute2 reports my network interface is enp6s0.

Downgrading to 0.4.0-r1 fixes the problem.

Maybe the extra slash (/) introduces the problem?
