I was reading at https://dougvitale.wordpress.com/2011/12/21/deprecated-linux-networking-commands-and-their-replacements/ and it made me grep around in LinuxCNC to see if we had any instances of these (I worried I might have written them in hm2-eth). It turns out that emclcd is invoking “ifconfig” and “netstat”. These will stop working on new Linux installs.

As far as I know emclcd has never actually worked, and only supports a particular LCD interface which is currently too hard to buy.
Despite that, I think we should keep it in our tree but consider not compiling it. I like it as an exemplar of a very different UI concept.

More concretely, this affects Debian Stretch which does not install ifconfig or route.
