[RFC] Moving dhclient script from netcfg to dhcp3 (was: /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf)
Date: Mon Jan 14 2008 - 00:56:17 EST
Now that we're fiddling with netcfg and dhcp3 anyway...
We currently carry the dhclient-script in netcfg, while that script should logically belong in dhcp3-client-udeb. It's clear that we need a simplified script and that we want to use 'ip' instead of 'ifconfig', but it is not clear why that script shouldn't just be part of the dhcp3 source package.
Attached a patch for dhcp3 that adds "our" dhclient-script to dhcp3-udeb in /sbin and drops the symlink from there to the file from netcfg (which is in /etc). This means there is no file conflict and we can just drop the script in netcfg once a new dhcp3 reaches testing.
If there are no objections to this plan, I will submit the patch against dhcp3 in a few days.
Notes
- I thought about doing a whitespace cleanup, but it seemed better to keep
the space indenting for easier comparison to the regular script.
- The dhcp3-client package has two separate versions of the script: one for
linux and one for kfreebsd. As we currently don't have separate scripts
in the udeb either, I have not bothered about this, but the script
probably will need to be adapted for kfreebsd at some point.
Cheers,
FJP
