Can you try the workaround provided in #920292? Creating a symlink from 
/usr/sbin/dhcpcd to /sbin/dhcpcd should do the trick.

Bug#920322: No DHCP client software found!

2019-01-23 Thread Harald Dunkel
Package: dhcpcd5
Version: 7.0.8-1
Severity: Grave

After the upgrade dhcpcd5 appears to be broken:


# dpkg -i ~/dhcpcd5_7.0.8-1_amd64.deb

Waiting for br0 to get ready (MAXWAIT is 1 seconds).
No DHCP client software found!

Moving back to version 7.0.8-0.1 fixes the problem, but without
network you cannot.
