Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
Problem in network manager 0.7 in Intrepid:
I have the following configuration /etc/network/
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_fd 5
bridge_stp off
bridge_maxwait 5
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 0.0.0.0
Despite this configuration, network manager insists on getting an addres for eth0 via DHCP. I have to manually run:
ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0
in order to get the network working. This configuration used to work in Hardy and earlier.

OK. Probably can be fixed by the "ifupdown" system config backend - though, NM probably needs to learn how to deal with just 0.0.0.0 address - if possible.
