reassign 694961 sysvinit thanks I've had a chance to reproduce and diagnose this; the problem is that the upstart in testing doesn't emit at boot the events necessary to start the 'networking' upstart job as shipped by the testing version of the ifupdown package, and the testing version of sysvinit includes upstart integration support that won't call /etc/init.d/networking because it's waiting for /etc/init/networking.conf instead.
I think the right solution here is for sysvinit-utils to declare a Breaks: upstart (<< 1.5-1). (This issue would be addressed by many earlier upstream versions of upstart, but since 1.5-1 is the first of these to be included in Debian, that should be sufficient as a Breaks:, and it's not worth tracking down which upstream version actually introduced the support.) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
