[Bug 1686058] Re: bridge-utils all-regex does not capture network devices

[rainer z]

i literally installed the os and the package, threw this in
/etc/network/interfaces :

  auto br0
  iface br0 inet dhcp
        bridge_ports all

and rebooted.

Then spent half an hour figuring this out.

Title:
  bridge-utils all-regex does not capture network devices

Status in bridge-utils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  from bridge-utils-interfaces(5)

  bridge-ports
   ...
   Specifying "all" is short for "regex eth.* em.* p[0-9].* noregex" and will get  all  the  ethX  and
   biosdevname-format (emX and pX) interfaces added to the bridge.

  
  This will NOT capture device names like enp* and network init will hang.
