RE: [Xen-devel] Why rename default bridge name ?

["Satoshi Uchida" <s-uchida@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you, Mr. Ewan, Okamoto and Ian.

I mistake that this announce mail is buried in many e-mail and
overlooked.
I update on Thursday (Oct 20) and Monday (Oct 24) by xen-unstable.tar.gz
(HP download).
And, I look again mailing list among these day. so, Timing maybe bad.

However, Why, won't SUSE expect the '-'.?
If there is not this expectation, this rename is not necessary ...

It did.

...

Plus Kurt's avoid-dash patch:

the network setup scripts on SUSE have trouble with the bridge name
xen-br0; they don't expect the '-'.
Arguably this should be fixed.
But I assume there's more scripts out there which may not like it, so I
suggest the following patch to rename xen-br0 to xenbr0.
