Package: lxqt
Version: 30
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: home.isfar at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

I have installed Debian Buster and Bullseye as a VM on two different
host PCs and have noticed that when I choose to install the LXQt DE the
VM will be assigned two IPv4 addresses, visible from the `ip a` command.

In both cases the hypervisor was KVM. At no point did I set up a static
IP address, I simply allowed the installer to set up the network
automatically. At first I believed I had mis-configured something or
installed an unusual package, but the same issue happened on a clean
install, where the very first thing I did was open a terminal and check
`ip a`.

This has affected my other hosts on the network because name resolution
will sometimes fail. I am nearly certain this must be some sort of issue
with choosing to install LXQt from the installer. I do not have any sort
of unusual IP assignments on my network from any other operating system,
including Debian installed without LXQt.

Thanks for your time,
Ali Homafar
