Thanks for your report. I think it makes sens. But for the moment, I am pushing it to a separate branch. If I am not wrong, the debian-installer installs some files in /etc/network/interfaces.d/, so there must be some coordination to avoid issues in future installs. Debian Installer Team: it is OK from your side to make the change described above? Cheers, -- Santiago
