[Bug 1278595] [NEW] Wrong timeout behavior or output

[Karl-Philipp Richter]

Public bug reported:

The following result of invokation of ifup is possible in Ubuntu 13.10 with ifupdown 0.7.44ubuntu3:
<code>
time sudo ifup bond1
Waiting for a slave to join bond1 (will timeout after 60s)
No slave joined bond1, continuing anyway

real	0m5.388s
user	0m0.042s
sys	0m0.269s
</pre>
Either the timeout specification of 60s is wrong or the program reads the wrong variable or *something* is very misleading and should be clearified (in the output of the program).
/etc/network/interfaces:
<code>
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface eth0 inet manual
    bond-master bond1
    bond-primary eth1 eth0

iface eth1 inet manual
    bond-master bond1
    bond-primary eth1 eth0

iface bond1 inet manual
    address 192.168.3.100
    netmask 24
    bond-slaves eth0 eth1
    bond-mode 0
    bond-miimon 100
</code>
