[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#690987: network-manager: option added in /etc/network/interfaces by D-I is not commented after nm install

[Laurent Bigonville]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.4.0-6
Severity: serious

Hi,

The new debian installer (wheezy beta 3) is now adding ipv6
configuration for the interfaces. This configuration includes
the following option: "privext 2"

After installation, /etc/network/interfaces was looking like this on my
machine:

=====8<========

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
#NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp
# This is an autoconfigured IPv6 interface
#NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet6 auto
	# Activate RFC 4941 privacy extensions for outgoing connections. The
	# machine will still be reachable via its EUI-64 interface identifier.
	privext 2

=====8<========

As you can see the "privext 2" option is not commented, this is making
the networking init script generate warnings.

Cheers

Laurent Bigonville
