Do not upgrade package ifupdown
« on: 2013/05/07, 17:32:26 »
Both 0.7.41 and 0.7.42 versions of ifupdown have bugs that will prevent your networking from coming up at boot (or manually).  Do not run d-u until these issues are resolved.

If it is too late for you, then you can work around the problem by commenting out the two lines in /etc/network that make the loopback device:

Code: [Select]
#auto lo
#iface lo inet loopback


and reboot, or bring up networking manually.

auf (schlechtes) Deutsch:

Versionen 0.7.41 und 0.7.42 von ifupdown beide haben Bugs, die Ihre Vernetzung am Aufkommen am Stiefel verhindern (oder manuell).

Lassen Sie nicht DU laufen, bis diese Fragen entschlossen sind.

Thanks dibl.

I saw ifupdown coming in repeatedly today. But I was lucky as I did not reboot until I updated again because there was a new kernel ... and ifupdown 0.7.43 which here on 32 bit works without problems.

de:
ifupdown 0.7.43 auf 32 bit architektur hat hier keine probleme, im gegensatz zu 0.7.41 oder 0.7.42, welche die interfaces nicht mehr starten.
Ok, you can't code, but you still might be able to write a bug report for Debian's sake

Confirmed -- 0.7.43 is now installing via d-u and is working correctly again.

Hmmm. I am running 0.7.42 and I saw the error about lo failing. I was worried, but for some reason, my networking is working ok, anyway.

Going to d-u now, though.

Yes, it is once again necessary to be sober when running d-u -- or at least semi-sober!    :lol:

Yup, Sid finally awoke from a long slumber and is now throwing his tantrums again :D


On a serious note, the issue with ifupdown seems to be resolved for me too, so on to the next breakage :)

Version 0.7.43 is *newer* than 0.7.8.

Don't read the "." as a decimal point ( and the two of them not as two decimal points ;-) ). The points are delimiters. It is version xy-(0)8 compared to version xy-43 .

Version .43 ist neuer als Version .(0)8, die Punkte sind keine Dezimalpunkte ;-) sondern Trennzeichen.
