Hi,

AFAICT, the dependency on ifenslave is from the ifupdown hooks provided
(none of which execute /sbin/ifenslave).
I wouldn't drop the ifupdown dependency on ifenslave unless you moved the
ifdown scripts somewhere else.

Certainly in Artful, if one does not have ifupdown, the package ifenslave
is not going to provide any benefit, however if someone installs ifenslave;
I feel that it should also depend on ifupdown as the scripts are where the
integration happen.

Do you think there is a use-case for the ifenslave package without
ifupdown?
