More than a year later and no action.. Unbelievable.

I made the mistake of attempting to deploy Trusty for a new DNS server.
Spent about an hour attempting to migrate the old IP to the new box.
None of the workarounds were successful -- including the 13.10 scripts
the previously worked.  Only rebooting the box brought the IP alias up
successfully.  Totally unacceptable.

Is this just something stupid in the scripts or is there some underlying
change that actually broke networking?

If this isn't fixed soon, Precise will have been the last usable LTS
server release.

Ugh.. All my Precise boxes will have to get migrated to some other
distribution. Trusty is no longer an option..
