upgrade clobbered /etc/init.d/networks
I just upgraded two machines from the latest stuff on one of the
mirrors, and after I rebooted them (they were due), afterward both
lost all net connectivity. After remembering that
/etc/init.d/networks was a likely culprit, I took a peek and noticed
that although loopback setup had been fixed 127.0.0.1->127.0.0.0
(good), all the info in the second section of the file had been
deleted. The second section's where the ethernet card, etc. is
set up.
This happened on both machines. I tried to find out which package did
this (for a bug report), but a "dpkg -S networks" turned up empty. I
figured it's either base, netbase, or netstd. (I guess the bug lists
are down right now anyway...)
Anyone else notice this?
