Description Richard Alpe 2015-10-26 08:33:43 UTC
Description of problem:
The tipc tool was introduced in iproute2 v4.0.0-70. This tool replaces the old tipc-config tool for configuring the tipc protocol. It uses the "new" tipc netlink kernel API intoduced in v3.18.

The tipc tool depends on libmnl, which is a new dependency for iproute2. Considering that Fedora 23 comes with both libmnl and tipc kernel support I think the new tipc tool should be present as well.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora release 23 (Twenty Three)
Iproute2: iproute-4.1.1-1.fc23.x86_64
Kernel: 4.2.0-300.fc23.x86_64

How reproducible:
$ tipc
bash: tipc: command not found...

Comment 3 Richard Alpe 2015-10-27 09:26:01 UTC
I checked with Fedora 23 testing and now the tipc command exists. I'm not sure if this was something you did as an action from this case or that I wasn't using the testing channel previously as iproute changelog say:

* Sun Oct 04 2015 Phil Sutter <psutter> - 4.1.1-3
- Add missing build dependency to libmnl-devel
- Ship tipc utility

Anyway. It's solved in testing. Does this mean it will be part of Fedora 23 once it's released?

Thanks
Richard

Sorry for the confusion. My local Fedora VM's date was awfully off and I didn't realize that before pushing the new release. So you really found a bug, and my fix indeed was a reaction to this ticket. :)

Yes, that's what I expect.

Cheers, Phil
