It seems modifying write_interface.c alone should be enough. That would have been my first guess indeed. Am I correct in assuming that such an /e/n/i file with an older ifupdown doesn't cause any issues? I'd also like to know whether it can cause any issues with other tools parsing/using/abusing /e/n/i (n-m notably). Why the first question: just in case we end up backporting netcfg at some point. Why the second question: we have code to do this or that depending on whether n-m is getting installed within d-i, but it could be installed afterwards, so I'd be nice if adding this line didn't cause any issues later. Mraw, KiBi.
