Package: netbase
Version: 4.34
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software
Since some updates the beginning of this week, the static ipv6 address
of my network interface is not configured any more at boot time. Issuing an
ifdown and ifup or /etc/init.d/networking restart later on
manually restores the connectivity. This weekend ipv6 still worked
flawlessly. The loopback interface gets configured correctly, also
with its ipv6 address. Issuing lsmod right before
/etc/init.d/networking calls ifup -a, shows the ipv6 kernel
module is loaded.
Right after the boot ifconfig looks like this:
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1c:c0:25:d3:fc
inet addr:192.168.2.1 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

I hacked /etc/init.d/networking a bit, so it logged the verbose output
of ifup during boot. It gave the following output:
