It looks like ifupdown tries to configure the VLAN a second time when it
comes across the inet6 definition in /etc/network/interfaces.
This fails as the VLAN interface was already setup in the inet
definition of the same interface. It looks like a conceptual error in
the interfaces(5) syntax.

I thought IPv6 not working would be reasonably critical? I know it only
happens if you run IPv6 over a VLAN, but I think that is a reasonably
common occurrence.
Unfortunately, I can't even work around this by pulling beta2 from
precise into oneiric due to the problem with libc (which has been
Is there any chance to get this fixed in oneiric? Pulling
0.7~beta2ubuntu1 from precise also pulls in libc6 2.15 and some other
libs.
