(not sure about the exact version of netcfg I installed with, but the
issue occurred with both beta2 and beta3)
With both beta2 and beta3 I managed to obtain a system with
no entry for the loopback interface in /etc/network/interfaces.
I went through the netcfg process of the installer. DHCP failed to obtain
a connection, since it's pppoe, and I wound up punching in 192.168.0.1
(or was it 127.0.0.1? I can't recall) and other dummy static information
just to pass through the prompts. I then rebooted, and noticed that
the /etc/network/interfaces file contained only:
# Used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8). See the interfaces(5) manpage or
# /usr/share/doc/ifupdown/examples for more information.
...but nothing more. That there was nothing present about my fake static
connection I couldn't care less about, but the lack of an entry for the
loopback interface is serious. Presumably "lo" isn't missing for
everybody, or this would have been fixed ages ago, so I guess it must be
a problem specific to how I handled the installer.
Thanks,
Christopher Martin

Changes:
netcfg (0.71) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Joshua Kwan
- Remove XSIisms in dhclient-script.
- Evaluate argv[0] after calling basename on it so that we can strcmp it
against "ptom". It somehow didn't happen in the internal dhclient-script
context, but appeared during testing in the shell.
- Add Thomas Hood to Uploaders.
- Re-enable broadcast stuff in dhclient-script, fixing a Sparc (at least)
regression.
- Remove kill_dhcp_client prototype from netcfg.h because it's now static.
- Change newline + a space to just a newline to end some disable_dhcp
woes.
- Warn if there's no default route available after getting a DHCP lease.
(Closes: #253543)
- Don't add 'auto' or hotplug mapping lines for 16-bit PCMCIA devices.
(Closes: #248071, #239284)
- Add a missing fclose in iface_is_hotpluggable.
* Christian Perrier
- netcfg-dhcp.templates
Some rewrite for being clearer, possibly. Run debconf-updatepo
* Thomas Hood
- Change interfaces options that use underscore to hyphens. No loss
of functionality. (Closes: #255185)
- *.c:
+ Test for NULL pointers before using empty_str()
- netcfg.c, netcfg-dhcp.c, netcfg-static.c
+ Handle the case where there are no interfaces. Just ask for a
hostname and write basic /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/hosts
files. (Closes: #243543)
- netcfg-common.c:
+ netcfg_get_interface(): Don't exit if there are no interfaces.
Instead just return with variables set to 0.
+ netcfg_write_common(): write basic /etc/network/interfaces and
/etc/hosts files even if the ipaddress is 0.
- static.c:
+ Add resolvconf support (Closes: #255187)
+ Add comments to /e/n/i about which packages implement which options
- dhcp.c
+ Add comments to /e/n/i about which packages implement which options
+ Fix race to dhcp_exit_status after dhcp_running set to 0.
+ Count iterations in the polling loop instead of checking the time()
+ Use waitpid(dhcp_pid,,) instead of wait() to get child status
since we don't want the status of, e.g., killall.sh
+ Eliminate use of dhcp_running and use (dhcp_pid>0) in its place
+ Eliminate some unnecessary calls to kill_dhcp_client()
+ Mark local variables with "static"
+ Eliminate use of quit_after_hostname by creating HOSTNAME_SANS_NETWORK
from HOSTNAME and DOMAIN_SANS_NETWORK from DOMAIN
+ Use DHCP hostname as the default hostname if no hostname is set
(Closes: #239591)
+ Write hostname provided to the DHCP client in order to get a lease
on the "hostname" option line for the interface in /e/n/i
+ If the user backs up from netcfg/get_hostname, go to retry question
+ Wait at least two seconds for DHCP client to exit (Closes: #255984)
+ Clean up code
. Always use spaces for indentation
. Improve comments
. Reorder state machine states
. Move some functions around
- netcfg-dhcp.templates:
+ More updates
+ Run debconf-updatepo again
