It looks like ifupdown tries to configure the VLAN a second time when it comes across the inet6 definition in /etc/network/interfaces.
This fails as the VLAN interface was already setup in the inet definition of the same interface. It looks like a conceptual error in the interfaces(5) syntax. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/905660 Title: [ifupdown] ipv6 refuse vlan interfaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/905660/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
