Hi Andrew.
What's the status on #545250 and #572396? Has this been forgotten? ;)
Attached another patch, if you didn't like the previous one, but that one
was better IIRC.
Chris.
* This patch makes the postscript not warn, if either a "auto lo" or an
"allow-auto lo" statement is present in /etc/network/interfaces.
"auto" and "allow-auto" are synonymous according to the manpage.
