Hi Mike,

I do deeply care about epair, but for me, ifinfo does the
right thing for me:

root@irc:~ # ifinfo | grep Interface
Interface vnet0 (epair30):
Interface lo0 (lo0):

for one. For the other. For the main purpose, figuring out
in cloud-init what the driver of an interface is / if the
interface has been renamed, this is more than sufficient.

Thank you very much,

Mina
