Description: Basic TCP/IP networking system
This package provides the necessary infrastructure for basic TCP/IP
based networking.
However, removing the ifupdown package results in a broken networking
init script due to the following line:
[ -x /sbin/ifup ] || exit 0
Since it is perfectly acceptable to configure APT to only install
'Depends', the ifupdown dependency should be removed, or it should be
moved to the Depends section.
Thanks,
