Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.6
Severity: minor
root@thanatos:/etc/network# cat interfaces
auto lo
allow-foo wlanp_0
iface lo inet loopback
iface wlanp_0 inet dhcp
root@thanatos:/etc/network# cat run/ifstate
lo=lo
wlanp_0=wlanp_0
root@thanatos:/etc/network# ifup --allow=baz wlanp_0
ifup: interface wlanp_0 already configured
The "up" action is disallowed, so the warning message is misleading.
(Even if wlanp_0 were not already configured, ifup would not bring
it up, because doing this is disallowed.)
