[Bug 1492129] Re: FFE: integrate networkd with /etc/network/if-*.d/ scripts and resolvconf

[Martin Pitt]

** Description changed:

  In https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-w-networkd-
  vs-ifupdown we want to provide networkd as a viable option for Ubuntu,
  in particular server/cloud land. This requires some integration with
  existing packages, in particular calling the /etc/network/if-up.d/ and
  if-post-down.d/ scripts, similar to what NetworkManager does.
  
  I would like to land this in wily still, so that people can experiment
  it and we still have some time to tweak it  for 16.04 LTS:
  
      http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-
  systemd/systemd.git/commit/?id=27f7cc9f9f32
  
  As we don't currently use (or even advertise) networkd in Ubuntu, the
  risk of this is very low IMHO. The main regression risk is if that would
  somehow influence/break interfaces managed by ifupdown or
  NetworkManager, but the above changes test if the interface is managed
  by networkd.
  
  We also want to provide integration with "resolvconf". This does not
- exist yet, but FFE wise it would be very similar; so perhaps this could
- get some pre-approval to avoid some paperwork?
+ exist yet, but an FFE for this might come for wily as well.

** Summary changed:

- FFE: integrate networkd with /etc/network/if-*.d/ scripts and resolvconf
+ FFE: integrate networkd with /etc/network/if-*.d/ scripts
