           Version: Final
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3

I see this in /var/log/boot.msg:


Setting up network interfaces:
    lo

The name ppp0~ corresponds to a backup file made by mcedit or mc, and it should
be totally ignored by all scripts. However, it gets written to /dev:

cer@nimrodel:~> locate ppp0
/dev/shm/sysconfig/config-ppp0
/dev/shm/sysconfig/config-ppp0~
/dev/shm/sysconfig/if-ppp0
/dev/shm/sysconfig/if-ppp0~
/dev/shm/sysconfig/ready-ppp0
/dev/shm/sysconfig/ready-ppp0~
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-ppp0
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-ppp0~

This system was upgraded from 10.2 recently, and is fully updated wit official
rpms only. In 10.2 there was no such error.
