Bug Description
The first "lo" interface is added by default to the /etc/network/
However the second one is added by the for loop which searches through
for device in /sys/class/
...
Resulting in
#
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto lo
iface lo inet dhcp
The later uses of "ifquery" dont correctly ignore "lo" despite being passed the switch to do so.
Which later results in a crash out of ifup (from /var/log/syslog)
dhclient[864]: Unsupported device type 772 for "lo"
ifup[810]: Unsupported device type 772 for "lo"
