Title:
  "Waiting for network configuration" on every boot

Status in “ifupdown” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Upgrade from 0.7~alpha5.1ubuntu6 to 0.7~beta2ubuntu1 brought this on:
  on every boot the "Waiting for network configuration" and "Waiting up
  to 60 seconds more for network" messages appear and boot is thus about
  2 minutes slower than before. It also says it's booting without
  network, but the network is in fact there after I log in.

  Downgrading back to 0.7~alpha5.1ubuntu6 makes the wait go away again.

  Reproduced this on three different computers on two different
  networks, both wired and wireless.
