Package: udev Version: 166-1 Severity: normal The addition of NEED_PERSISTENT_NET as a fix for bug 514213 appears to be somewhat unusable. When the udev hook script is called (from call_scripts at /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions:221), the NEED_PERSISTENT_NET variable is not passed (as it is not exported with some other configuration variables at /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs:183). Unless I have overlooked something, there is no way for the user to set this variable in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d as described in README.Debian.
