Changelog
ifupdown (0.7ubuntu1) quantal-proposed; urgency=low
* Resynchronise with Debian experimental. Remaining changes:
(LP: #298488, LP: #663352)
- ifupdown.nw: Use 100 as default route metric unless an explicit metric
parameter is set in /etc/network/interface.
- If the /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf file is present
but doesn't have the "ifupdown:managed" the previous upload instructed
the iniparser to return -1, which evaluates to TRUE. We instead instruct
it to return 0, as we shouldn't prevent ifupdown from managing the
interfaces in that case, as NM won't either. (LP: #281984)
- debian/postinst: If the loopback interface is missing from the config
in /etc/network/interfaces, add it on upgrade.
- Add jobs and hooks for upstart.
* Cherry-pick commit 011d5904c09d from upstream, fixing cases where the
error messages wouldn't be triggered (caused test failure).
* Cherry-pick commit 7c1a226cc995 from upstream, adds support for two
options on dhcpv6 (accept_ra and autoconf) (LP: #1013597)
* Cherry-pick commit 5af7e814faee from upstream, fixing a failure in the
example script generate-interfaces.pl (LP: #286808)
* Cherry-pick commit a1f8efc4d93f from upstream, add --no-scripts as a
parameter to ifup/ifdown, allowing the user to bypass the the scripts
in /etc/network/if-*.d/ (LP: #258782)
ifupdown (0.7) unstable; urgency=low
* Accept duplicate options in /etc/network/interfaces, join them using
a newline as a delimiter.
* If an interface isn't defined, but mentioned in auto or allow statement,
don't mention it in ifquery output.
* Change shortcut for --exclude to -X (was -e previously).
* Make ifquery return false if the interface isn't defined.
* Fix typos in the changelog.
* Calculate broadcast address internally.
* Allow concurrent netmask specification in both address (using CIDR
notation) and netmask for IPv6 (Closes: #674775).
* Add preferred-lifetime setting for IPv6.
* Pass -w and -e options to sysctl so we still can configure an interface
even if IPv6 SLAAC options can't be set for some reason.
* Port to GNU/Hurd (thanks to Svante Signell, closes: #296115).
* Chdir to root when executing external programs (Closes: #361964).
* Remove updetach from PPP method (Closes: #675016).
* Configure hotplug interfaces only if they're running (thanks to Evgeni
Golov, closes: #673658).
* Rewrite NEWS file (Closes: #673688).
* Update examples (Closes: #340992).
* Update tests.
* Update README.
ifupdown (0.7~rc3) unstable; urgency=low
* Upload to unstable.
* Don't refer to README from netbase any more.
* Internal changes:
- Make set_variable() able to set variables conditionally.
- Improve conversions interface.
- Add some support for interface link configuration.
- Don't leak memory in some functions.
* Configure VLANs automatically (Closes: #520436).
* Calculate netmask internally, so even if a user haven't supplied
one or have used CIDR notation, hook scripts will have it properly
specified in IF_NETMASK environment variable.
* Declare Breaks/Replaces relationship against netbase << 5.0.
* Merge changes from Ubuntu (thanks to Stéphane Graber):
- Mark package as Multi-Arch: foreign.
- Update statefile paths in the 'contrib' scripts and in the
noweb source.
* Temporarily unapply patch for #547587.
* Update tests.
