Description Marius Tomaschewski 2011-02-23 09:49:32 UTC

At start, a popup is displayed:

 Can't get list of interfaces: SIOCGIFFLAGS: bonding masters: No such device

It is trying to use the special bonding_masters file (for adding / removing
bonding interfaces) as interface:

#  LANG=C ls -l /sys/class/net/
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    0 Feb 23 10:41 bond0 -> ../../devices/virtual/net/bond0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 23 10:41 bonding_masters

Fix is to filter for directories, or even better for /sys/class/net/*/ifindex.

This is a libpcap bug, upstream libpcap already fixed that. 
That fix is not in its released versions yet.
