Package: ifupdown Version: 0.7~alpha3 Severity: important Almost every time my system resumes, dhclient processes for the same interface. Here is sample "ps" output after a suspend-resume cycle:

The only way to fix is to kill the dhclients manually and ifdown/ifup the interface. wlan0 is a wireless interface managed by wpa_supplicant, in a WPA-PSK network. The driver is iwl3945, this is a Thinkpad T61. /etc/network/interfaces: # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp allow-hotplug wlan0 iface wlan0 inet manual wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf iface default inet dhcp iface tmp inet static address 192.168.1.109 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.225 dns-nameservers 192.168.1.225 auto tap0 iface tap0 inet static pre-up tunctl -u marcus -t $IFACE address 192.168.3.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 post-up sysctl net.ipv4.conf.$IFACE.proxy_arp=1 -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30.5-melech (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ifupdown depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.27 Debian configuration management sy ii iproute 20090324-1 networking and traffic control too ii libc6 2.9-25 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii net-tools 1.60-23 The NET-3 networking toolkit ifupdown recommends no packages.
