Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.10
Severity: important

ifup -a seems to give up if one interface fails to come up. So if a
machine has multiple interfaces and a non-primary ones fails, *all* its
networking can fail to come up on boot. ifup should continue trying to
bring up interfaces and only propigate the failure at the end.
