Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.9
Severity: important

In the file /etc/network/interfaces, I have :
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback


But when I launch :
# /etc/init.d/networking restart (or ifup lo)
I have :
# ifconfig lo
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:1895 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:1895 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:356898 (348.5 KiB)  TX bytes:356898 (348.5 KiB)

The loopbak interface  has not the adress 127.0.0.1...

In order to put it to work, I have to do
# ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
