Mostly, yes. For Jessie updates we have the bigger "disable the new
names entirely if /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules does not
exist" hammer in place. However, I ran into this bug in several VMs
already; and I can't guarantee that no Jessie user is using QEMU (or
other virtualization that can use virtio) and does not have a
0-persistent-net.rules -- after all, you might have multiple
interfaces and use the e1000 or any other driver.

So, it may not affect a lot of people, but I'd still like to keep this
snippet for a while. I made the bug RC so that we have some more time
to investigate/discuss the impact.

Thanks,

Martin
