Bug description:
  Binary package hint: wondershaper

  Latest checked version: 1.1a-4.1

  Just upgrade my router from dapper to hardy. I'm seeing a problem with
  the wondershaper package. I've been running it like so from
  /etc/network/interface (as a post-up operation):

  wondershaper eth3 4500 333

  Doing ifup now gives:
  $ sudo ifup eth3
  ... snip dhcp ...
  What is "flowid"?
  Illegal "police"
  Failed to bring up eth3.

  
  Now, when I run it, I get error messages:
  burner at firewall:~$ sudo wondershaper eth3 4500 333
  What is "flowid"?
  Illegal "police"

  And it doesn't seem to be limiting the transfer rates.

  TEST CASE:
   * install the wondershapper package.
   * run the command:
      sudo /usr/sbin/wondershaper eth0 48 48

  Output with -2ubuntu1:
    What is "flowid"?
    Illegal "police"

  Output with 2ubuntu2: nothing.
