Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.4-4.12
Severity: normal
I'm using /etc/network/interfaces to start my ppp
connection (pppoe over eth0). At system boot everything works
as expected. But at shutdown the eth0 interface is brought down
before the ppp0 link. So pppd can not terminate correctly.
This doesn't matter for usual configurations but I'm using
some extra plugins with pppd which require pppd to exit cleanly.
I think this problem can be solved by inserting following line to
/etc/init.d/networking into the stop section before
ifdown -a --exclude lo:
ifdown -a --exclude eth --exclude lo
I have not tested this yet but will do next days.
Thanks,
Andreas

With current versions of ifupdown, it is safe to call ifup/ifdown
recursively. So if you really want your ppp interface to be down before
eth0 goes down, do something like this:
iface eth0 inet dhcp
...
down ifdown ppp
iface ppp inet ...
...
