Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.26+squeeze1 Severity: wishlist
I'm filing this against debootstrap because the system was installed using debootstrap and /etc/network/interfaces isn't owned by any package, so my best guess is that the file was created by debootstrap. Feel free to reassign this ticket as appropriate. The default /etc/network/interfaces contains no configuration at all. However having the loopback interface up and running is important for many programs. Please add loopback configuration to the default /etc/network/interfaces like debian-installer does: === Begin === # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback === End === For chroots this doesn't hurt (/etc/init.d/ifupdown won't get called), but for "real" systems it's crucial. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages debootstrap depends on: ii wget 1.12-2.1 retrieves files from the web Versions of packages debootstrap recommends: ii gnupg 1.4.10-4 GNU privacy guard - a free PGP rep debootstrap suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
