   An update that has 5 recommended fixes can now be installed.

Description:


   This update to sysconfig resolves the following issues:

   * In the network initialization script, do not check
   the renamed-flag when the udev daemon is not running. This
   is common inside Linux Containers (LXC) and caused failures
   to start the network.
   * In the ifup-bridge script, apply STP constrains when
   STP is enabled.
   * In the ifrenew-dhcp script, use dhcp client's
   (dhcpcd) built-in option --renew to renew leases.
   * In the ifup-route script, do not force a dummy
   gateway for multicast routes (bnc#754154) and use the -4/-6
   options correctly.
   * Differentiate ib, ibchild and bond types and stop
   ib-bond interfaces correctly.
