This is the line that needs to be in that file:
run-parts -a "$1" /etc/maemo.dhcp.d
I know what happened you mv'd the dpkg file to the one without the period before script so that one contains the correct information with wrong file name but open it in editor to double check and if it does then you can do the mv command and make it to the proper file name to replace the original. You need to be root to move the file.

What happened is when you ran the first mv command beeman you forgot a period.. and thus renamed the dist-pkg file with ipv4script.
Now you need to:
Now you need to:
Code:
mv libicd_network_ipv4script libicd_network_ipv4.script

Egoshin - the file won't be missing. My guess is that vpnc modifies that network_ipv4.script file (which is supposed to be there).. because that file is modified.. when you updated today with the push from Nokia - dpkg refuses to replace files that were modified by the user (which it was, when you installed the application that modified it). It instead puts the file it WOULD have overwritten it with, as a .dpkg-dist file instead in order to extract the file to where it WOULD have gone, but not overwrite the modified file.
You then have to move the file yourself to make it active.
Nokiabuf: This is not a problem with Nokia anymore than installing a random EXE off the internet breaks your desktop is a problem for Microsoft. This was a third party application installed, modified a system file, and is now incompatible with the new firmware. This is a bug in the software.. not in Nokia's firmware or Nokia's default behavior. Nokia cannot possibly be assumed to make sure every possible update will not interfere with every package in Extras-testing and Extras-devel. It is the package maintainers of those packages that must update their applications to work with the new firmware.

vpnc installation creates a script which runs all time then you connect to WLAN. And that script has (had? - I still on 44.1) a bug - it doesn't recognize Maemo5 (fremantle) properly. And it may under some conditions go to wrong file loop. So, simple fix (until this bug is fixed) -
1. go to X-Term
2 became root (via 'root' command but you need rootsh package installed)
3. execute commands
echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1">/etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1">/etc/vpnc/resolv.conf-backup
4. switch OFF-ON
Disclaimer: I don't upgrade to 52.1 yet and I don't know if dhcp client is changed, so I can't judge about /etc/maemo-dhcp.d/50_ipv4_network_setup, in my N900 directory /etc/maemo-dhcp.d is ABSENT.
2 disclaimer: I never had a problem with /etc/udhcpc/libicd_network_ipv4.script but it has sense to check it's absence (ls -l /etc/udhcpc/libicd_network_ipv4.script) and if it is absent, then copy it from distributive file as jsbigs and other advice:
4B. mv /etc/udhcpc/libicd_network_ipv4.script.dpkg-dist /etc/udhcpc/libicd_network_ipv4.script
