Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.7.48.1
Severity: normal

Hi,

the udev package ships a udev rule [1], which runs ifup $INTERFACE via
the net.agent helper.

This seems to create a race with the networking SysV init script which
runs also runs ifup for hotplugged interfaces in ifup_hotplug().

Is there a need to ifup allow=hotplug interfaces from within the
networking init script, seeing that net.aget / 80-networking.rules
already cover hotplugged interfaces?

Aside from that, I do think that it would make sense to move net.agent
and 80-networking.rules from udev into ifupdown proper.

What do you think?
