Yes, I am sorry,

I got new packages to be uploade since 5 years or so, but my sponsor got
scared.
This one has been NMU'd.

Hmmm, actually I am a little bit surprised that the mere
mentioning of eth1.20 in the bridge configuration automagically
creates eth1.20.

I would suspect that the first 2 lines should be:

auto eth1.20
iface eth1.20 inet manual

As that would create an eth1.20 in the up state. Actually, that's
how I do it ;-).

On the other hand, the bridges should either not get created at
all, or created without ports, or somewhere in between.
If it attaches eth1 instead of nothing at all, that would be a
grave bug.

Regards,

Ard
