Bug#869485: debian-refcard: update ifup ifdown command



Package: debian-refcard
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


The current distribution (Stretch) and so the next one (Buster) don't
provide ifupdown package by default. I see two ways to update the refcards:

- adding 'need ifupdown' in the second column like the next line (in
`ip` command)
- replacing ifup, ifdown commands to 'ip link...' command

The patch does the second solution.

I wonder if the 'need iproute' is still relevant because, IIRC, it's
installed by default now. In doubt, I modify only to iproute2 package
because iproute package is only a transitional package now.
