It's likely you don't have ifconfig installed in your system, as it has been deprecated despite being being widely used. Either install it (find the corresponding package for your distribution, perhaps net-tools or something like that), or change source code to use the newer "ip" command. Maybe dev team should provide a fallback between ip/ifconfig for it to work on all distros. Duplicate of #111 I think... Search already existing issues before adding new ones.
