I don't know whether this still occurs as I now use NetworkManager (ifupdown 0.8.36+nmu1 is installed, and I don't see any problem, but it is no longer used to bring up the network...).
Feel free to close the bug, assuming no-one else has the same issue with the latest version. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
