[Bug 1875036] Re: bridge stops working on focal update

[Rafael David Tinoco]

Hello Javier,

Actually the release notes for the version you were at:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes#netplan.io

already deprecated ifupdown in favor of netplan.io.

Upgrade path to 20.04 has likely uninstalled bridge-utils because of
that. You can keep using ifupdown + vlan + bridge-utils + net-tools but
do have in mind that those tools are being deprecated in favor of:
systemd-networkd, netplan.io, iproute2, etc.

Good examples on how to obtain the same result using netplan.io can be
found at:

https://netplan.io/examples

For now I'm marking this as a Invalid bug. If think there is anything
else on this topic I would suggest writing to Ubuntu Users mailing list,
a correct place for community-based technical support.

Best regards,

Rafael D. Tinoco

Title:
  bridge stops working on focal update

Status in bridge-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I don't know if this is the right package to report but: I have
  upgraded to 20.04 from 18.04 and my network stopped working. Problem
  was that bridge-utils package was uninstalled, so network was unable
  to start. Reinstalling the package solved the problem. But I don't
  understand why it was uninstalled. I have reviewed the release note
  for 20.04 and I haven't seen the problem, so I'm reporting in case in
  can help anyone.

  Regards
