Public bug reported:

The networking code in 'distros/arch.py' is severely broken, I wonder if
it had ever at worked.

1. In method _write_network in arch.py line 71 there is:

net_fn = self.network_conf_dir + dev

the definition for the output file name.  Since

network_conf_dir = "/etc/netctl"

and

dev = "eth0" (for example)

net_fn will be "/etc/netctleth0" where it should be "/etc/netctl/eth0"

2. Also in method "_write_network" in line 79 there is

'DNS': str(tuple(info.get('dns-nameservers'))).replace(',', '')

which causes a crash of the whole provider in case a 'dns-nameserver' is
not defined in 'meta-data'.
