#79091 — Bug#1036534: iproute2: Regression: "ip mo" no longer matches "ip monitor"

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Package: iproute2
Severity: important
Version: 6.1.0-2
X-Debbugs-CC: bluca@debian.org formorer@debian.org

Dear Debian iproute2 maintainers,

When upgraded from Debian 11 to Debian Testing/Sid (Debian 12), typing "ip mo"
no longer matches with "ip monitor". Instead, it matches "ip moo":

===================================================

* Debian 11:

$ ip mo help
Usage: ip monitor [ all | LISTofOBJECTS ] [ FILE ] [ label ] [ all-nsid ]    
[ dev DEVICE ]
OBJECTS :=  address | link | mroute | neigh | netconf |
            nexthop | nsid | prefix | route | rule | stats
FILE := file FILENAME

* Debian 12:

$ ip mo help

 _ __ ___   ___   ___
| '_ ` _ \ / _ \ / _ \
| | | | | | (_) | (_) |
|_| |_| |_|\___/ \___/


P.S. no real cows were harmed for this moo

===============================================

I have received reports in private that this broke some scripts that uses "ip
mo" for "ip monitor".

Looking back in the packaging history, the regression is likely introduced in
https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/iproute2/-/commit/4aace8ca0b29535f18907b027afadd51d155ea4f
.

Could you please look into it and possibly revert to old behavior in Debian
12?


Thanks,
Boyuan Yang

You should really get those scripts fixed, relying on abbreviations
that happen to match is a bad idea. If upstream adds some other command
it will break just the same.
