Hi,

I just wanted to comment on this patch pulled with the recipe:

I have already commented on this patch when I still was an upstream
developer for ifupdown, see <https://bugs.debian.org/757291>. The issue
led to this patch was caused by Ubuntu maintainer trying to remove one
of the features he deemed as not yet ready for Ubuntu release, but he
didn't do it properly on the first attempt, thus leading to broken
loopback (which didn't really matter for Ubuntu, as the loopback
interface was configured by upstart there back then).

The correct fix for the issue would be rebasing to the Debian version of
the package which, by the way, has a new active developer, Guus Sliepen.
Then the patch could be dropped.

Cheers,
  Andrew
