Why is macvtap support being removed?

Hello,

I read that macvtap support is being dropped in the next core update1. I’m curious what is the reason for this please?

While I have configured bridges before on other operating systems, I used a vtap on IPFire for hosting a VM as it seemed simpler and I thought that the wiki previous suggested it as the first choice.

Thank you

This is already answered in another post from today.
