Package: ifupdown2 Version: 1.0~git20151029-1 Severity: normal Hello,
Recently systemd has been tagged as "conflicts" with ifupdown so a system update broke my network configuration. I have been able to restore the configuration by using ifupdown2 but I have seen a few error messages that probably indicate that there are missing dependencies on this package. Despite the errors I have been able to use ifupdown2 to get eth0 up and then using the "pump" package I could configure DHCP to get my Internet connection working again. When trying to configure a static IP address: > ifup eth0 warning: /etc/network/interfaces: line4: cannot find source file /etc/network/interfaces.d/* warning: failed to execute cmd 'ip -force -batch -' ([Errno 2] No such file or directory) When trying to use DHCP: > ifup eth0 warning: /etc/network/interfaces: line4: cannot find source file /etc/network/interfaces.d/* warning: failed to execute cmd '/sbin/dhclient -pf /run/dhclient.eth0.pid -lf /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.eth0.leases eth0' ([Errno 2] No such file or directory) Please ignore the "line 4" warnings since I don't think they are relevant. I believe that whatever packages provide "ip" and "dhclient" should be listed in "depends" or "recommends" on ifupdown2. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages ifupdown2 depends on: ii init-system-helpers 1.24 ii python-argcomplete 0.8.1-1 ii python-ipaddr 2.1.11-2 pn python:any <none> ifupdown2 recommends no packages.
