There *just* was a thread around here: either use ip -r route (-r means try to resolve IP address to name, your old "route" did exactly that), or just install net-tools (as you said above). > But if this command was so useful, why It was removed? Folks, don't get so worked up when your favourite package is not installed by default. Otherwise the default install would end up installing *all* packages! Just go install it. If enough of you do (and enable popcon, hint, hint) it might become again default, who knows? Whining here won't help and just makes the mailing list more annoying. FWIW, I have net-tools installed and use old and new. Happy camper.
