Dear Maintainer,

after installing new package ifupdown , ifup, ifdown and ifquery
exit with error:

 root@cri-bsz:/etc/network# ifup eth0
/etc/network/interfaces:5: interface lo declared allow-auto twice
ifup: couldn't read interfaces file "/etc/network/interfaces"

etc/network/interfaces
----------------------
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

In post install script var/lib/dpkg/info/ifupdown.postinst
you said(line ~100):
    # We don't need loopback interface definition anymore as
    # ifupdown handles loopback interface on its own from now


After removing loopback section in /etc/network/interfaces, ifup
ifquery... run fine.

Bernard
