Setting up ifupdown (0.6.4-4.12) ... ifupdown.postinst: Error: The canonical path of /etc/network/run could not be determined. Aborting.
After googling for a few minutes I found that $ mkdir /dev/shm/network
I believe I had some weird, unreproducible, behaviour from /lib/init/readlink when trying some of this stuff out; so afaics the above should never happen, but I'm not sure it actually doesn't. The obvious explanation would've been that /dev/shm didn't exist, let alone /dev/shm/network, though that seems odd too.
Anyway, new ifupdown in unstable doesn't use "readlink -f", instead having its own sh script fragment, so should work more reliably.
This bug's already closed. FYI only.
Cheers, aj
