Package: vlan
Version: 1.9-2
Severity: normal

Hi

I can't tell if this bug should be filed against udev, ifupdown or vlan
but currently I'm unable to use VLAN interfaces in
/etc/network/interfaces as described in the docs:

 iface eth0 inet static
     netmask   255.255.255.0
     network   192.168.42.0
     gateway   192.168.42.1
     address   192.168.42.109
     broadcast 192.168.42.255

 iface eth0.101 inet static
    address 10.0.0.129
    netmask 255.255.255.224

Always end up with my normal eth0 and then this:

 # ifup eth0.101
  Set name-type for VLAN subsystem. Should be visible in /proc/net/vlan/config
  Added VLAN with VID == 101 to IF -:eth0:-
  SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
  eth0.101: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
  SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
  eth0.101: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
  Failed to bring up eth0.101.

 # ip link
   ...
   2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,10000> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:11:2f:d6:28:55 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
   9: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop 
    link/ether 00:11:2f:d6:28:55 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Apparently udev, probably due to the infamous
/etc/udev/rules.d/z25persistent-net renames the interface and thus
ifupdown can no longer find it. 

bye,
