[GNUe-dev] gnue-common/src/util/uuid.py - patch for broken (?) interface detection

[Ross Golder]

My (Ubuntu Breezy x86_64) machine barfs with:

...
 286, in Generator
    _NIC = NICInformation ()
  File
"/home/rossg/gnue/gnue-svn/.cvsdevelbase/gnue/common/utils/uuid.py",
line 148, in __init__
    self.hwaddresses = [self.getHWAddress (i) for i in self.interfaces]
  File
"/home/rossg/gnue/gnue-svn/.cvsdevelbase/gnue/common/utils/uuid.py",
line 185, in getHWAddress
    data   = fcntl.ioctl (sfhd.fileno (), self.SIOCGIFHWADDR, ifreq)
IOError: [Errno 19] No such device

I've found the attached patch, which uses safer (?) alternative code to
enumerate the interfacegnus, to work for me :) Hope it helps.
