Details

net-profiles script fails on machines having /var/run/ mounted as tmpfs.
therefore, netcfg should possibly check whether /var/run/network/profiles/ and /var/run/network/interfaces/ exist
(install -d ..., as e.g. /etc/rc.d/hal does for /var/run/hald/...)
This task depends upon

(.. i mean, net-profiles script should check it, not netcfg itself)

Hrm, I suppose, i'll add a check -- although, those dirs are created when you install the package.

I'll add the check to netcfg, as netcfg is not dependent on net-profiles
