Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.7.5
Severity: normal
For an interfaces file that only turns on auto for lo and nothing else
the ifup -a that is excuted on startup calls the if-up.d scrips (and
possibly others) with an extra interface named "--all". So a simple
script in if-up.d like
echo INTERFACE $iface
produces the output
INTERFACE lo
INTERFACE --all
The undocumented "--all" interface breaks some hook scripts that try to
execute unintended actions on "--all" because they only filter for "lo".
This is either an undocumented feature or a bug.
