Ok, this is true. Fortunately I have a git repository of /etc. The diff is as below: X11/Xsession.d/55xfce4-session (gone) alternatives/lightdm-greeter (gone) alternatives/x-session-manager (gone) alternatives/x-session-manager.1.gz (gone) alternatives/x-terminal-emulator alternatives/x-terminal-emulator.1.gz avahi/avahi-autoipd.action (gone) avahi/avahi-daemon.conf (gone) avahi/hosts (gone) dbus-1/system.d/avahi-dbus.conf (gone) default/avahi-daemon (gone) dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/avahi-autoipd (gone) .../dhclient-exit-hooks.d/zzz_avahi-autoipd (gone) group group- gshadow gshadow- init.d/avahi-daemon (gone) ipp-usb/ipp-usb.conf (gone) ld.so.cache mailcap network/if-down.d/avahi-autoipd (gone) network/if-up.d/avahi-autoipd (gone) nsswitch.conf passwd passwd- rc0.d/K01avahi-daemon (gone) rc1.d/K01avahi-daemon (gone) rc2.d/K01avahi-daemon (gone) rc3.d/K01avahi-daemon (gone) rc4.d/K01avahi-daemon (gone) rc5.d/K01avahi-daemon (gone) rc6.d/K01avahi-daemon (gone) shadow shadow- xdg/autostart/xscreensaver.desktop (gone) xdg/xfce4/Xft.xrdb (gone) .../xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-session.xml (gone) xdg/xfce4/xinitrc (gone) xfce4/defaults.list (gone) 40 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 841 deletions(-) May be this gives some information. If not I can reproduce the issue and provide logs as required. Now there is no 169.254.xxx.yyy in any file of /etc. Kind regards, Christoph -- Ist die Katze gesund schmeckt sie dem Hund.
