+    Upon upgrading the <systemitem role="package">network-manager</systemitem>
+    package, interfaces configured in
+    <filename>/etc/network/interfaces</filename> to use
+    <acronym>DHCP</acronym> with no other options will be disabled in that
+    file, and handled by NetworkManager instead.  Therefore the
+    <command>ifup</command> and <command>ifdown</command> commands will not
+    work.  These interfaces can be managed using the NetworkManager frontends

+    Conversely, any interfaces configured in

+    ignored by NetworkManager.  This applies in particular to wireless
+    interfaces used during the installation of Debian (see bug <ulink
