 I don't understand what you mean.

 I've talked about the new patch with the maintainer, and another user
 which suggested a priority list should be used for interface names.

 When I've brought it up on the debian-devel list, I was pointed to the
 fact that one can always rename interfaces.  Hence, the behavior is
 probably plain wrong.

 My current proposal for the maintainer is to focus on the interface
 which is the target of the "default" route -- if there's one -- or the
 first UP interface.

   Bye,
