Package: klibc-utils
Version: 2.0.1-3.1
Severity: wishlist
File: klibc
Tags: upstream

Hi,

I'm filing a Debian wishlist bug to keep debian informed
of patches sent upstream in the hope that the BTS will
be useful and not just extra work.

Allowing ipconfig to bring down interfaces is useful
when unlocking a crypted rootfs over the network
because it allows the initramfs to have a different
network configuration from that of the running system.

For further detail see the upstream klibc mailing
list post archived at:
http://www.zytor.com/pipermail/klibc/2013-July/003430.html

For patches see:
http://www.zytor.com/pipermail/klibc/2013-July/003432.html
or the "ipconfig_down" branch at github:
https://github.com/kpinc/klibc.git

For dropbear/initramfs-tools patches see Bug#715048:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=715048

For documentation patches (cryptsetup) see Bug#715487:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=715487
and the related Bug#714952:
