Title:
  Files installed by ifupdown in /etc/init should be conffiles

Status in ifupdown package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ifupdown source package in Lucid:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I needed to make a change in /etc/init/network-interface.conf to make
  my persistent PPP connection work with upstart. However my change kept
  going away after a couple of months. It took me a while to figure out
  why. The files installed by ifupdown in /etc/init are not marked as
  conffiles!

  Please mark /etc/init/network-interface.conf and friends as conffiles,
  so if a sysadmin needs to make change to these files, they are
  retained and do not disappear silently the next time the ifupdown
  package is upgraded!
