The "dist-upgrade" warned about not using ifenslave anymore but iproute2, so I tried to see how this would affect the server implied, and:
This is my /etc/network/interfaces
auto eth0
auto eth1
iface eth0 inet manual
iface eth1 inet manual
auto bond10
iface bond10 inet static
address 192.168.10.205
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.10.0
broadcast 192.168.10.255
gateway 192.168.10.254
bond-slaves eth0 eth1
bond-miimon 100
bond-mode balance-rr
bond-downdelay 200
bond-updelay 200
This is what it happens on every reboot:

I have to say that the alternative systemd method to setup bonding, bridging, etc. is far to be a simple, clean and clear method as it should be, in my humble opinion.
Also, but less important, I am using the traditional NIC naming scheme, using "biosdevname=0, net.ifnames=0" with GRUB, and I get these messages. I don't understand why (my /etc/udev/rules.d is empty):
may 18 14:58:02 hermes systemd-udevd[365]: Using default interface naming scheme 'v245'.

Why is systemd trying to do some NIC renaming is a mistery to me.
