Here's how I imagine it: 1. Set the default values of the interfaces to an empty string or nil 2. If unset during enwc-setup, use ip or ifconfig (or other customizable pr= ogram) to determine the available interfaces and prompt the user for each o= ne It's probably possible to automate it more, but I don't see much benefit. = In all likelihood, it'd be easier and more accurate to collect the interfac= es and present them to the user for selection.
