Right, see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387832 > 2.) the current 01ifupdown script incorrectly maps the NM > "down" event to the ifupdown pre-down PHASE (running > scripts in if-down.d). It should map the "down" event to > PHASE=post-down" and run the script in if-post-down.d Sorry, I think that is incorrect. The current 01ifupdown script is fine. The problem is all in NM, which dispatches "down" after the interface is down. However, I would guess it is still more useful for most packages to run if-down.d scripts instead of if-post-down.d, if only one of them is going to run. To me it seems like "up" and "down" have some sort of primacy over "pre-up" and "post-down." It's difficult to tell. I would suggest keeping status quo until upstream is fixed to run all four stages at the proper times.
