Public bug reported:

While upgrading from saucy to trusty, I get asked about modifications
to a configuration file I know I haven't modified:

| Setting up ifupdown (0.7.47.2ubuntu1) ...
| 
| Configuration file '/etc/init.d/networking'
|  ==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
|  ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
|    What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
|     Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
|     N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
|       D     : show the differences between the versions
|       Z     : start a shell to examine the situation
|  The default action is to keep your current version.
