--- Begin Message ---Package: ifupdown Version: 0.7.41 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, Networking did not come up after installing 0.7.41, using previously working configuration. Not even the loopback interface was brought up! Trying to take up any interface manually gives an obviously bogus error message: frtest1:~# ifup eth0 /etc/network/interfaces:5: interface lo declared allow-auto twice ifup: couldn't read interfaces file "/etc/network/interfaces" This is bogus because: frtest1:~# grep lo /etc/network/interfaces # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # set up ebtables to allow L3 routing of DHCPv6 Removing the (only instance of) "auto lo" allowed bringing up interfaces again. But this workaround is in no way acceptable. This change breaks existing configurations. You cannot do that.
