Include brctl and python-mako packages for ifupdown2 to function properly

[adaraiseh]

I've been test stretch dentOS on a virtual machine, I was trying to use ifupdown2 to be the primary network config tool as I understand it is supposed to be like that for dentOS. However, current builds for stretch and buster are missing bridge-utils and python-mako which are required for ifupdown2 to function properly, I couldn't find them in common release packages: builds/any/rootfs/stretch/common/all-base-packages.yml builds/any/rootfs/buster/common/all-base-packages.yml

Test outputs:

After installing them manually it seems to be working fine.

(There is a typo in the title: python-make → python-mako.)

Thank you for the report. I never used ifreload -a, and only used sudo systemctl restart networking.
