Package: ifupdown Version: 0.7.49 Severity: important
Hi. This kinda feels like the other evil twin sibling from #727073: What I have is a VM that runs on qemu/libvirt with Debian sid (everthing updated as of now). The /e/n/interfaces was a simple plain: allow-auto lo allow-hotplug eth0 iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet dhcp The VM is basically my template for any other server I set up. Because of this, and because of #727073, I've changed the allow-hotplug to allow-auto as well, since that seems the only solution right now for using it on servers with statically configured IPv6 addresses. After the change, I noted that the networking of the VM no longer works (after the first reboot). It seems that eth0 isn't brought up anymore *at all* (which is in contrast to #727073, which brings stuff up, but just "too late" - therefore also the new ticket). But it seems again to be some timing issue between when ifupdown tries the ifup, and when the DHCP of the VM is ready (even though I'd expect that to be ready much earlier). Or maybe I have just some complete misunderstanding of allow-*. Any help on how to even debug this, would be appreciated. :) Cheers, Chris.
