Hi,

this seems to be a recent regression, either in dhclient or ifupdown,
unfortunately I cannot find a related changelog entry in either package.

Until a few days ago, my setup worked fine where I had eth0 and wlan0
both active, depending on whether the cable was plugged resp. a wireless
network around. dhclient would set up routes, including default routes,
for both networks and the kernel would do the right thing, i.e. prefer
eth0. If one or the other network goes down, things continue to work
without problem.

Since a few days it seems that dhclient does not set a default route if
one exists, so the first interface to come up gets the default route,
and the second not. If the first then goes down I am left with no
default route at all.

I hope you can tell from the description what change trigged this and
how to fix it (or at least how to configure my system to work as
before).

Thanks,
Joachim
