the init scripts for the old bridge-utils are deprecated. please use the stuff with the new baselayout. the old packages will be going away soon (as soon as sysfsutils-1.2 goes stable). "the init scripts for the old bridge-utils are deprecated." sorry, don't follow. the currently stable are actually old and deprecated? "please use the stuff with the new baselayout." I think I already am. "the old packages will be going away soon (as soon as sysfsutils-1.2 goes stable)." you mean after sysfsutils-1.2 goes stable baselayout will be updated into 1.12.0? baselayout-1.11 has it's own support for bridging, without needing /etc/init.d/bridge. The new bridge-utils links against >sysfsutils-1.0, so sysfutils needs to be stable before bridge-utils can go stable. I've put a 0.9.6-r2 into the tree as stable on x86 also telling users to use the new baselayout stuff. For the new baselayout stuff, it's entirely in /etc/conf.d/net and /etc/init.d/net.$DEVICE /etc/{conf,init}.d/bridge is not used anymore at all. |
