I ran into this bug as well. I'm trying to set up an automatic WiFi AP with
hostap so that plugging in a WiFi dongle starts hostap and unplugging stops
it. The stopping is supposed to be done with an if-post-down.d script.
The problem is exactly what Vasilis Vasaitis describes, ifdown fails if the
Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.7
Severity: important
I noticed that ifupdown doesn't use if-post-down.d-scripts and/or
post-down-stanzas from interfaces file when it's called by udev's
hotplug events. I'm using madwifi-ng with wpa_supplicant.
Reproduciable with other hotpluggable hardware?
