The patch "inet-6-.defn-fix-inverted-checks-for-loopback.patch" is not
needed for ifupdown-0.8.16. And it causes the issue that ifupdown can
not configure the loopback interface like:
$cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
$ifconfig shows all up interfaces including 'lo'
$ifup lo
ifup: interface lo already configured
$ifdown lo
$ifconfig still shows the up interface 'lo'

The function of ifup/ifdown depends on '/bin/ip' which is provided by
iproute2, so here add this runtime dependency.
