Remember that TUN and TAP are two different facilities. I have TAP support (which
admittedly hasn't been tried in a while), but never did TUN support.
Keith mentioned (offline) a short change to add it; I'll look into adding TUN as a
separate option.
Meanwhile, if you want to talk to an actual Ethernet interface, you might try the
"pcap" option. I've used that recently with good results.

So I?m keen to know ? what changes did you make?
I?m running a test box under Ubuntu 18 which is very similar to Debian Buster. When I use
pydecnet with a line such as:
circuit tap-0 Ethernet tap:tap1022 --random-address
pydecnet complains that it can?t find the device. Apart from /dev/net/tun I can?t find
any suitable reference for pydecnet to connect to.
Was this major code lifting? Or some small subtle changes?
Very interested to see what you?ve done.
Cheers, Wiz!!
