Package: ifupdown Version: 0.6.10 Severity: normal Hi,
recently I have noticed that the route command issues an error message while the network is brought up through the initscripts and ifupdown. It seems that ifupdown uses wrong paramters when invoking the BSD route command which seems to understand a different syntax as compared to the Linux version (e.g. while calling the Linux version of "route" display the current routing table, the BSD version will output a usage information). Here comes the output of "ifup -a" on my kFreeBSD machine: Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client 4.1.1-P1 Copyright 2004-2010 Internet Systems Consortium. All rights reserved.
