Yes, I've noticed that quite a while ago, but haven't found a good way to resolve the issue. > Is there a need to ifup allow=hotplug interfaces from within the > networking init script, seeing that net.aget / 80-networking.rules > already cover hotplugged interfaces? Even if I remove that, there's still probability of races, as net.agent blocks on the state of the real interface, while it should wait for ifupdown to do its job first. > Aside from that, I do think that it would make sense to move net.agent > and 80-networking.rules from udev into ifupdown proper. > What do you think? Yes, I think I need to take that script over and fix that. Thanks for filing a bug. -- Cheers, Andrew
