Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
On a fresh Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye install isc-dhcp-server with "sudo apt
install isc-dhcp-server".
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Nothing as the error is reported immediately after installation.
* What was the outcome of this action?
The installation log reports the following error:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt install isc-dhcp-server
