older version
============================
root [ ~ ]# ip --Version
ip utility, iproute2-ss120521
root [ ~ ]# ip addr show eth0
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state
UNKNOWN qlen 1000
link/ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.x.x/24 brd 192.168.x.255 scope global eth0
inet6 fe80::xxxxxx/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
newer verion
============================
root [ ~ ]# ip --Version
ip utility, iproute2-ss120801
root [ ~ ]# ip addr show eth0
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state UP qlen 1000
link/ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
root [ ~ ]# ip -f inet addr show eth0
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state UP qlen 1000
inet 192.168.x.x/24 brd 192.168.x.255 scope global eth0
So the newer verion of 'ip' did not show the
"inet 192.168.x.x/24 brd 192.168.x.255 scope global eth0"
without option "-f inet".

I didn't see any changelog of iproute2.
And there is lots of changes between iproute2-3.4.0/ip and iproute2-3.5.0/ip .
Well, it looks like a bug of iproute2-3.5.0 .
But where is the upstream of iproute2 to feedback ?
