Public bug reported:

When I installed rpcbind on Ubuntu 12.04 (32-bit) version (by means of
old 'potrtmap' package) I found that it broke the settings in
/etc/network/interfaces by commenting out the last line that configured
eth0 for DHCP, etc.

Original file had this as the last 3 lines:

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

After installing rpcbind it had done this:

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
#NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp

As a result, when I rebooted there was no remote log-in, etc.

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Release:        12.04

$ apt-cache policy rpcbind
rpcbind:
  Installed: 0.2.0-7ubuntu1.1
  Candidate: 0.2.0-7ubuntu1.1
  Version table:

I expected to be able to install this package and still have a working
network interface!
