When upgrading:

Setting up ifupdown (0.8.36+nmu1) ...
Installing new version of config file /etc/init.d/networking ...
ifupdown.postinst: Warning: /etc/network/interfaces does not exist

I now use NetworkManager by default, so that /etc/network/interfaces
is not necessary. And AFAIK, the network can also be managed by
systemd.

(I'm not sure whether ifupdown is still useful, but I think that the
ifup and ifdown commands may become necessary in case of issue with
NetworkManager.)
