** Description changed: netplan 0.34 introduces new features: - - optional: true on an interface to allow it to be "ignored" by networkd-wait-online at boot, and avoid 5 minute delays. - - added 'help' subcommands everywhere. - - added bash completion - - 'netplan ip leases' now allows retrieving the lease file for the "private" DHCP settings contained in a lease for the backend in use. The lease file is displayed in full and allows retrieving settings not normally exposed by the backends. - - implement better routing support: policy-based routing is now supported for the networkd backend, and better control over the "standard" routes to be installed. A new 'on-link: true' option allows for defining a route that is directly attached. + - optional: true on an interface to allow it to be "ignored" by networkd-wait-online at boot, and avoid 5 minute delays. + - added 'help' subcommands everywhere. + - added bash completion + - 'netplan ip leases' now allows retrieving the lease file for the "private" DHCP settings contained in a lease for the backend in use.

(LP: #1752162) + * Disable "ifupdown-migrate"; which is incomplete and thus risks breaking systems. Better iterate over it without showing it as a viable option.
