Bug Description

[impact]

vlan package installs some ifupdown scripts without x mode.

[test case]

check /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/vlan and if-up.d/vlan scripts, their mode should be 755.

[regression potential]

any regression would likely involve failure to configure a vlan interface using ifupdown.

[scope]

The vlan package in Bionic has the correct file mode; the vlan package in Eoan introduced the incorrect file mode, and the vlan package hasn't been updated since then.

this is needed for Eoan and later.

This is not needed for Debian, as the file mode are correct in the latest package (v2.0.5) there.

[original description]

After installing today a new server with 20.04 and restored my /etc/network/interfaces file with vlan it ended up, with no vlan interfaces.

After searching for the reason, I found, that only vlan scripts in the following folder has not set the execute rights. So I added them manually and now vlan works again.

/etc/network/if-pre-up.d/
/etc/network/if-up.d/

But the script in /etc/network/if-post-down.d/ had the execute rights.

Hope it will fixed, that others can hassle-free setup there vlan :)

Wow, you may be the first person to report this, even though it's been broken like this since Disco...I believe this would only affect new installs since Disco, so that may be why it went unnoticed so long. Sorry, and thanks for reporting it!
