[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#437127: xen-utils-common: vif-common fails to identify ip address of ethernet device

[Marc A. Donges]

I must apologize, those semantics of match() are a peculiarity of
GNU awk. The following should work portably, I tested it with an old mawk:

ip -4 -o addr show primary dev eth0 | awk '$3 == "inet" {split($4,i,"/"); print i[1]; exit}'
