It should have been fixed by https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x/commit/ff05e2a90edf8af5d7b8ad5c69cae2dd40af2c8d It works for me in post-Sep 01 images and I don't see the error in the latest one, but I'm not sure why it would appear in the Sep 01 image if the commit is from Aug 30.

If it re-appears, feel free to reopen.
