I am using lucid. I had checked in the latest source package before reporting the bug. When I didn't see a "conffiles" in the Debian directory, I assumed this bug was still there. Sorry about the dup.
Could this fix please be backported to lucid, then? This kind of thing is really annoying to sysadmins, who are more likely to run the LTS releases. I can help if you want. Until I figured out this problem, I lost Internet connectivity multiple times on some of my servers (and had to physically get to the console to restart the network connection). It took me a while to suspect this, because .debs usually never ignore local modifications in /etc. Thanks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/816117 Title: Files installed by ifupdown in /etc/init should be conffiles To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/816117/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
