Package: ifupdown-extra
Version: 0.12
Severity: wishlist

In the /etc/default/network-test and each script, "DO_SYSLOG=yes" is
used.  This overide environment variable thus unable to do

$ sudo DO_SYSLOG=no ifdown eth0

Why not??

Just replace all the "DO_SYSLOG=yes" with "DO_SYSLOG=${DO_SYSLOG:-yes}",
please.

Maybe other variable should be set the same way.  VERBOSE is the good
candidates for this type of scripting.
