unstable: guessnet doesnt work



Hi all,

I have installed ifplugd and guessnet on latest debian/unstable.

My configuration does not work as expected,
The system is attached with eth1 to lanb but guessnet fails to detect it and chooses the default dhcp. I do not understand why. How can I debug it further? Why is the arping help message printed?

TIA, Bruno
