Description Chris Mayo 2021-06-19 10:31:38 UTC

No IP address is assigned to the guest network interface when starting qemu with the default -nic user and using DHCP in the guest.

Fixed by reverting to net-libs/libslirp-4.3.1-r1 (although this has multiple CVEs bug 796347).

Also appears to be fixed in libslirp-4.6.1:

Fix DHCP regression introduced in 4.6.0. !95

I suppose we need to stabilise it now given QEMU 6.0.0 is.

Yeah, I went ahead and bumped it with stable keywords.
