Package: bridge-utils
Version: 1.5-9

The bridge-utils features an explicit call to `/etc/network/if-*.d/vlan`,
but this has the effect of breaking all other ifupdown hook scripts
called on interfaces that are bridged together.  The case I'm looking at
is a device where extra commands are needed before a given interface
becomes available.  Doing something like `ifquery $iface >/dev/null 2>&1`
and running `ifup` if true might alleviate this.

My case is an interface has an attached switch chip and if the commands
to configure the switch chip aren't run beforehand Bad Things(tm) can
happen.
