Subject: WARNING: do not upgrade net-tools


It seems the new version of net-tools in unstable is completely and utterly
broken to the point where it is no longer possibile to configure any
network interface:

fog:~# ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
SIOCSIFADDR: Bad file descriptor
lo: unknown interface: Bad file descriptor
lo: unknown interface: Bad file descriptor

I strongly advise everyone to put this on hold immediately. Bugreport
has been filed already btw.

Wichert.
