Everything worked fine, as I expected: NM did not tear down the network connection and I successfully upgraded to lenny. I thus downgrade the bug to severity important and mark it unreproducible. The case is different, when you are using NM and DHCP, then indeed you will run into troubles, as the 0.6.4-4 prerm script will stop NM halfway through the update. But as you explictly said, that you are using a static ip, this is a different issue. I retitled the bug report to reflect that you are using a static ip.
