I had a huge puzzle in Sid, why is lightdm coming online faster than my network.  I was going to tty1 after logging in and systemd was still chugging along

From the debian changelog of ifupdown

http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/i/ifupdown/ifupdown_0.8.10_changelog

Quoteifupdown (0.8.9) unstable; urgency=medium

  * It's network-online.target, not .service.
  * Do not run "ip link set down" on manual interfaces during "ifdown -a".
    Closes: #809166
  * Add the keywords "no-auto-down" and "no-scripts". Closes: #615130

search engines are not great for non-existing services, ha ha. 

Also adding to the mix was the change in 8.7

Impose a 5 minute timeout for starting network services.
    Closes: #318577, #810656

So, if it is taking forever  ("systemd-analyze blame"  is your friend here to identify) - well it is mostly harmless and will be upgraded soon.   

Lot of juggling going on with ifupdown taking some things away from systemd in Debian (and probably ubuntu also) 

Search forum for "More info easier via inxi"    If requested -  no inxi, no help for you by  me.
