[Bug 1454254] Re: upgrade path to persistent network names

[Martin Pitt]

We do have stable interface names, through the exact same way
(/lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules) as we've had for
many years. I proposed to switch to ifnames a few days ago
(https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2015-May/038761.html),
if you want you can already try that by deleting /etc/udev/rules.d/70
-persistent-net.rules and booting with "net.ifnames=1".

Title:
  upgrade path to persistent network names

Status in udev package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  One of the disappointments from 15.04 release is incompletely
  migration to proper plumbing stack. In particular, the lack of
  persistent names for network interfaces is especially annoying.

  Would be nice if clear workaround (install/remove some package for
  example) could be provided till the time when migration will finally
  finish and normal interface names would be available on ubuntu as well
  as old racy hell we have to deal with at the moment.
