Thanks for working on this.

Btw, you said earlier that you had managed to port some older release.
Upstream clearly indicated that he'd take that if you have it on hand.

I am currently daily driving a GNU/Hurd Debian machine on a T43.  I am
not especially a great coder, but I am happy to test to see if your code
builds and or runs.  Can I get a link to your code?

Or are you just trying to build the latest dhcpcd from source?

Also what is FTBFS?

Also may I ask why Debian is switching to dhcpcd?  Just curious.

Thanks,

Joshua
