Package: ifupdown-extra
Version: 0.33+nmu1
Severity: minor

In testing ifupdown-extra, I noticed this in syslog:

    Feb  9 22:14:53 image-debian64 ifup[495]: 
/etc/network/if-up.d/10check-duplicate-ip: 86: cannot create /dev/stdout: No 
such device or address

/dev/stdout is a Bash feature, but 10check-duplicate-ip is run using
/bin/sh (see first line). On Debian systems, /bin/sh is normally a
symlink to dash, which is a much more limited implementation of the
Bourne shell.

The script should either limit itself to using POSIX standard shell
features, or switch to a /bin/bash shebang line.
