Package: bridge-utils
Version: 1.5-3
Severity: important

Me and Andrew Shadura, the ifupdown maintainer, have been looking at the 
latest bridge-utils upload, and we have several concerns about it.

For a start, directly calling /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/vlan is a huge 
layering violation.
Anyway, nowadays ifupdown directly manages vlans and the vconfig 
package is deprecated.

I am quite concerned that you decided that a complex script should be 
called for every "auto" interface which appears in the system: this 
could have a serious impact on systems with many interfaces (I have 
firewalls with over hundreds of interfaces configured!).
I also doubt that this is generally a good idea, even if it were not 
causing scalability problems, because interfaces marked "auto" should 
only be configured at boot time.

Last but not least, nowadays iproute is able to create bridges by 
itself, so we should investigate if brctl is still needed.
