Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
My /etc/network/interfaces says:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto tun0
iface tun0 inet static
address 10.3.2.123
netmask 255.255.255.0
Note *no* eth0 in there.
Starting up n-m while tun0 is up causes it to bring up eth0, which has
no cable whatsoever connected to it:
$ ip route
169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 169.254.9.97
default dev eth0 scope link metric 1000
$ ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:F0:92:EE:6A
