Package: netcfg
Version: 0.71
Severity: normal
If the debconf priority is critical and multiple interfaces are
available, netcfg only asks which interface to use at high priority, so
it fails. Trying again works fine, as the error causes the priority to
be dropped.
There may be other instances of the same problem, which this one
obscured; basically if there's no default (either by Default: or SET)
then the question probably needs to be asked at critical priority.

This was fixed in netcfg 0.72, but the wrong bug number was closed by
mistake.

.
* Joshua Kwan
- Don't bother depending on mii-diag-udeb for netcfg-static as it's not
used.
- Patch by Adam Thornton to add recognition for IUCV devices in static
configuration. (Closes: #258109)
- Don't suggest hostname given by the DHCP server if it's invalid.
(Closes: #258207)
- Ask netcfg/choose_interface at prio critical. (Closes: #257963)
- Build with NDEBUG.
- Indicate which interfaces are wireless. (Closes: #258338)
- Cut off domain when seeding hostname from DNS. (Closes: #258852)
Seed get_domain with it instead.
* Colin Watson
- Fix typo (s/occured/occurred/g). Unfuzzy translations.
* Per Olofsson
- Generate hotplug mapping entries for 16-bit PCMCIA cards as well,
since they will be managed by hotplug in pcmcia-cs 3.2.5-8.
