Did you check whether /sbin/ was in your $PATH at that time or did you
try to run it as /sbin/ifconfig? The problem may simply be that the
executable was not found in your $PATH although the executable was where
it should be.

(Apart from that I thought that ifconfig and friends were not really
necessary anymore since they were replaced by the "ip" tool. I think the
priority of this package was demoted from important to optional but I
cannot check at the moment. Maybe net-tools just isn't part of a
standard install anymore. If you want ifconfig, you need to install
net-tools.)
