[Bug 1206230] [NEW] ifupdown: don't use PPP updetach option by default

[Anand Kumria]

Public bug reported:


I am being bitten by the *exact* set of circumstances as in Debian bug #675016

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=675016

In my case, it brought my network to a complete standstill, until I had
someone physically go and visit the machine.

This appears to have been fixed in later versions of the ifup package
and *only* affects 12.04 LTS

Description:	Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
Release:	12.04
