[Bug 802538] [NEW] /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules not automatically generated

[ben thielsen]

Public bug reported:

previous to 11.04, if /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules was
deleted, it would be automatically regenerated at boot.  this appears to
now not be happening.

if run manually, write_net_rules complains "missing valid match" -
although i don't know if this is necesarily meaningful.

i did find this debian bug, which appears to maybe be similar/related
[although it's a bit old at 2008]:
