Change Details

This will be a literal rewrite of the legacy Perl code responsible for processing udev net events into config file entries (interface -> hw-id). The goals are: 1) Drop legacy Perl code, and notably, the use of XorpConfigParser; the latter has been removed but for these remaining scripts. 2) Provide a base line for investigation of the issue of unexpected interface reordering, and a wrapper within which to test solutions. 3) Keep the rewrite as conservative as possible, as it should act as a transition to an interface-monitor daemon (2), and soon be replaced.
