Yes, man interfaces is not really complete about what can go in there. The fact is that if you have a wireless network the wpa passwords can go there. I believe that the relevant documentation is in the readme.Debian file for wpasupplicant.
For what concerns the confirmation... maybe apport (cli or gtk) does, but apport-collect did not, at least for me. As you can see from the extract in the above message, it directly created the attachment: Dependencies.txt... to then say Error connecting to Launchpad: HTTP Error 500: Internal Server Error You have to allow "Change anything" privileges. But nonetheless, my data made it to the Launchpad, lucky enough saying IfupdownConfig: Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/network/interfaces' because knowing that I had passwords in /etc/network/interfaces, with a bit of paranoia I had made it only root readable. Should I file a bug against apport? -- Network manager disables ethernet card it should not touch at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/452085 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
