This bug was fixed in the package ifupdown - 0.7.47.2ubuntu2 --------------- ifupdown (0.7.47.2ubuntu2) trusty; urgency=medium
[ Stéphane Graber ] * Allow setting the MTU and HWADDR on manual interfaces. (LP: #1294807) * The above change also means that manual interfaces will now be brought up and down (ias many users expected until now). * Disable link.defn as it's not covering all the cases supported by the vlan and bridge hooks and so causes more harm than good at this point. (LP: #1295304) * Also enable network-interface-container for OpenVZ. (LP: #1294155) * Update networking.init to exit 1 on reload when on an upstart system. * Pass --force to ifdown in network-interface to silence errors on non-existing interfaces. (LP: #1295620) [ Dimitri John Ledkov ] * Prevent the ability to stop or restart networking service interactively. As that is not supported. Networking job is only stopped during shutdown sequence.
