Could you please apply the attached patch? It should fix the problem sort of. That means it should fail in the second rung too, but since the newly created file is not remove upon failure it thinks the interfaces are already up and running on the second try. I think we will do a new upload as soon as 1.5.6-dfsg-1 migrates into testing which will include this fix. Frank, is this patch okay with you?
