The file /etc/network/interfaces looked like auto lo iface lo inet loopback Hello
auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp wpa-ssid xy wpa-psk xyz that worked fine so far ... then I made the update (part of aptitude log attached) after the update and also the update of upstart (testing to unstable) cause of boot problems the computer waits a long time with this verbose messages: init: startpar-bridge (networking--started) stae changed from stopping to killed ... from killed to post-stop ... from post-stop to waiting init: handling stopped event initctl list shows: network-interface (lo) start/running network-interface (eth0) start/running network-interface (wlan0) start/running network-interface-security (network-interface/eth0) start/running network-interface-security (network-interface/wlan0) start/running network-interface-security (network-interface/lo) start/running network-interface-security (networking) start/running network-inferface-container stop/waiting a manual start of wlan0 works fine the entry allow-hotplug doen´t work on THIS computer Sorry about the confusion with allow-hotplug. On another computer I use allow-hotplug instead of auto and that works.

Currently, the /etc/init/network-interface.conf job (which is part of the ifupdown package) calls ifup *only* for 'auto' interfaces: exec ifup --allow auto $INTERFACE It does *not* handle interfaces that are marked 'allow-hotplug', which I know is an issue given the default /etc/network/interfaces as set up by the installer, but that does not appear to be the issue you're reporting. You seem to be saying that the network is not started when using 'auto'. Can you please clarify? Can you also attach the /etc/network/interfaces file that you see problems with, and post the output of the command 'initctl list | grep network-interface'?
