How's packaging looking on all supported platforms?
It is packaged already for Fedora, RHEL, Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo as soon
as I know. Maybe for some other platforms. Pypi is provided as well.
On a related note, ip_monitor.py is 87 lines of code, I'd be wary of getting
rid of it and using a full blown library instead
Strictly speaking, the monitoring code using native netlink will not be
more complicated. In the current state Popen + iproute2 are under the
hood. Though well-tested and widely used, that's true. In the proposed
way it will be pyroute2, and it also has more than 200 hundreds of
functional tests in the regression testing cycle.
Then again, using pyroute2, we might want to replace other pieces of

Probably. It is capable to manage most of interface types (incl.
transparent support of userspace-managed ones like OVS and teamd) and
provides more or less comprehensive support of RTNL, nfnetlink (ipset),
netns (via ioctl) etc.
