Package: netbase
Version: 4.20
Severity: normal

upgrading from netbase 4.19 to 4.20 causes lo to fail to start when starting my 
computer. It 
complains that the interface is already configured. When the computer has 
started running 
ifconfig shows no information about lo, but running ifup lo does not work 
untill I first 
ifdown lo. I've attached my /etc/network/interfaces file.
