[Test Case] Steps to reproduce: 1) echo no-scripts foo bar >> /etc/network/interfaces 2) ifup baz Expected results: Unknown interface baz Actual results: Segmentation fault (core dumped) It's irrelevant whether the second interface is on the same no-scripts line or separate one. This will crash just the same: echo no-scripts foo >> /etc/network/interfaces echo no-scripts bar >> /etc/network/interfaces [Regression potential] Seems slight. The patch fixes a clear bug in code that is only used to process the no-scripts (and apparently no-auto-down) stanzas.
