[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#706876: xen-utils-common: network-bridge assigns addresses, breaking ifup

[Ian Campbell]

Package: xen-utils-common
Followup-For: Bug #706876

The problem here is that network-* scripts are fragile and prone to breakage.
Both Debian and upstream recommend configuring networking explicitly using the
normal distro mechanisms i.e. /etc/network/intefaces. See
