[Bug 1003656] Re: bond entries in /etc/network/interfaces fail without indent (when adding a bond the bridge fails to acquire a dhcp address)

[andrew bezella]

it appears that the suggested edit to /lib/udev/rules.d/40-bridge-
network-interface.rules fixed the problem i was seeing (don't have the
vlan-related file on the system).  thank you!  the interfaces.fail and
interfaces.nospc files both now work as expected, as does our standard
interfaces configuration (the attached files were simplified versions of
this).

the whitespace/indentation question isn't a big deal, but it is a source
of confusion.  without your fix, the only version of the file that i
could get to work was the interfaces.utf8 (comment #4).  but it isn't
strictly related to indentation: both interfaces.fail (using ascii
whitespace indentation) and interfaces.nospc (no indentation) failed.
for whatever reason, the apparent indentation using the non-printing
characters in interfaces.utf8 worked.

thanks again...
