retitle 635604 postinst script does always generate node database
tags 635604 upstream confirmed
thanks

Thanks for reporting this problem.

The problem is that the postinst script does not detect if data from
debconf database are defaults or actual user inputs. The node database
should not be generated if 'skip and leave config as it is' is selected.

I'm currently unsure about the best way to fix this. Will talk to
chrissi again about this tomorrow.

Btw. the other problems you noticed arise from this (like the un-unique
MACs or the problems with DHCP).

The problem with the NIC not restoring original MAC address is strange.
Without more information I would guess it's the card's firmware or
driver's fault.
