Re: [OE-core] [PATCH] dhcpcd: add recipe for dhcpcd
Sounds good. I’ll resubmit to meta-networking. Once that goes through I’ll submit a patch to remove it from meta-alt-desktop-extras.

Re: [OE-core] [PATCH] dhcpcd: add recipe for dhcpcd
Thanks, Ross. There are currently two DHCP clients included in oe-core. The ISC DHCP client is in the dhcp recipe and udhcpc is included in busybox. There is also a very outdated recipe for dhcpcd in meta-alt-desktop-extras. Based on this I can see two approaches: 1) locate all DHCP client recipes in the same layer because they all provide the same functionality or 2) include alternatives in other layers (which in this case really just means dhcpcd as the ISC DHCP client and busybox shouldn’t really be considered “alternatives”). In either case it probably makes sense to remove the old recipe from meta-alt-desktop-extras. Thoughts?
