Package: ifupdown Version: 0.6.7 Severity: normal I think that only one of the preinst and postinst scripts should create /etc/network/interfaces. Specifically, preinst should not create it. Or if it does, move the code from the postinst to the preinst (so the created file will have a stanza for lo).
This isn't normally a problem, because debian-installer's netcfg writes /etc/network/interfaces itself, and FAI munges it too... I ran into this while hacking my FAI scripts to only write /etc/network/interfaces if it didn't exist, which is where the version created by the pre/postinst scripts comes in. I found it confusing, so I'm reporting a bug... happy hacking, Peter Cordes -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
