[Bug 1087228] [NEW] /etc/network/if-down.d/bind9 doesn't work; should be /etc/network/if-post-down.d/bind9

[Thomas Hood]

Public bug reported:

The bind9 package includes /etc/network/if-down.d/bind9 which does "rndc
reconfig". But this should only be done *after* the interface has been
deconfigured not before.

NetworkManager's /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/01ifupdown run-partses
only /etc/network/if-up.d and /etc/network/if-post-down.d, so when an
interface is deconfigured using NetworkManager the bind9 hook script
doesn't get run at all; named does not notice that the interface has
been deconfigured until its next poll (which happens every 60 minutes by
default).

It looks to me as if /etc/network/if-down.d/bind9 should be moved to
/etc/network/if-post-down.d/.

bind 9 1:9.8.1.dfsg.P1-4.2ubuntu3
