Hi Jose, * Jose Luis Rivero <jrivero@osrfoundation.org> [2021-10-15 14:36]:
* Package name : ifcfg Version : 0.22 Upstream Author : BJ Dierkes * URL : https://github.com/ftao/python-ifcfg * License : BSD Programming Lang: Python Description : Python cross-platform network interface discovery (ifconfig/ipconfig/ip) Ifcfg is a cross-platform library for parsing ifconfig and ipconfig output in Python. It is useful for pulling information such as IP, Netmask, MAC Address, Hostname, etc.
I'm not sure this should be part of Debian. Parsing command line tools is known to be brittle and ifconfig is a well known example for this. There is `ip -json` to provide a more machine readable output but it does not seem to be used by ifcfg.
Also there is already python3-psutil and python3-netifaces in Debian, providing the same information.
Cheers Jochen
