Change logs for ifupdown source package in Experimental

  • ifupdown (0.7.40) experimental; urgency=low
    
    
      [ Andrew Shadura ]
      * Don't configure bridge interfaces as tagged VLAN interfaces
        (Closes: #696642).
      * Add "tryonce" option to DHCP-enabled methods (Closes: #694541).
      * Implement inet6/auto for kFreeBSD, call DHCP release of ifdown
        on Linux (Closes: #701884).
      * Update manual pages.
      * Add tests for DHCP method.
      * Add ISC DHCP client to Build-Depends (the tests don't actually run
        the DHCP client, however).
    
      [ Stéphane Graber ]
      * Patches for upstart support from Ubuntu:
        - Start the job on runlevel [2345]. This is a no-op during a normal
          boot since the network will be started *before* runlevel is emitted,
          but is needed to restart the network after a change from runlevel 1
          (LP: #752481).
        - Don't bring 'lo' down (add it to --exclude).
        - Emit deconfiguring-networking (LP: #1061639).
        - Update network-interface-security job to stop when the parent job is
          stopped itself. This avoids leftover instances (LP: #1065684).
      * Set MTU of tunnel devices (LP: #1074048).
      * Actually set the new calculated value for duplicate entries
        (LP: #1086517).
    
      [ Josselin Mouette ]
      * postinst: Do not create /etc/network/interfaces if it was removed manually
        (Closes: #695906)

  • ifupdown (0.7~rc2+experimental) experimental; urgency=low
    
    
      * Try to bring hotplug interfaces up on initscript restart
        action as well.
      * Don't call ifup when there are no interfaces to bring up
        (Closes: #670145).

  • ifupdown (0.7~rc1+experimental) experimental; urgency=low
    
    
      * Prefer isc-dhcp-client to dhcp3-client (also closes: #422885).
      * Let dhclient fail when no lease can be acquired (Closes: #420784).
      * Raise command-line options priority over /etc/network/interfaces
        (Closes: #657743).
      * Prevent aliases and VLANs from putting the main interface down
        (Closes: #656270).
      * Make iproute2 calculate the broadcast address (LP: #924880).
      * Shut udhcpc down correctly (Closes: #338348).
      * Update the rules according to /run migration.
      * Pass hardening flags from dpkg-buildflags (Closes: #661243).
      * Implement ifquery interface (Closes: #568479).
        - Make ifquery process mappings (LP: #850166).
        - Ensure ifquery always has no_act turned on.
      * Change --all behaviour:
        - If ifup or ifquery is called with the --all option, if doesn't just
          bring up all interfaces marked as "auto", but all interfaces of a
          specified class, "auto" by default. For the most uses, this doesn't
          change anything, but lets all the interfaces of a specific class to be
          brought up or queried.
      * Support cross-compilation, move Debian-specific things out of
        the Makefile (Closes: #666084).
      * Take networking init script over from netbase package.
        - Add reload action which reconfigures all interfaces currently
          configured.
        - Add LSB Description field.
        - Remove /usr from PATH.
        - Merge ifupdown initscript in.
        - Improve warning messages.
        - Don't use redirection hacks when parsing /proc/mounts and /proc/swap.
        - Document all supported subcommands.
        - On start, try to configure hotplug interfaces if they seem to be ready.
          Ignore errors if they fail to configure for some reason (for example,
          if the interface happens to be renamed by udev before it's fully
          configured).
        - Override Lintian's false positives.
      * Remove /etc/default/ifupdown.
      * Call hook scripts when processing all interfaces:
        - If ifupdown is called with the --all option, before or after doing
          anything to the interfaces, it calls all the hook scripts (pre-up or
          down) with IFACE set to "--all", LOGICAL set to the current class
          specified by the --allow option (or "auto" if it's not set),
          ADDRFAM="meta" and METHOD="none".
      * Fix IPv6 issue on kFreeBSD.
      * Update test suite.
      * Improve manual pages.
      * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3.
      * Also closes: #535226:
        - In 0.7~alpha5, "auto" method has been added.

        (Closes: #572396, #545250).
      * Remove old .dpkg-old symlink (Closes: #639612).
      * Document some details on processing /etc/network/if-*.d directories.
      * Terminate ifup if it's still running when doing ifdown.
      * Finally migrate to /run/network.
      * Use FHS names for wvdial pid files (Closes: #255222).

      * Specify interface label (Closes: #645813).
