The isc-dhcp-client dependency exists to ensure support for network
configuration from within an initramfs, for which systemd-networkd is
not currently a replacement since we don't run systemd in the initramfs.
See also https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-
devel/2022-May/042080.html ff regarding the removal of isc-dhcp-client
altogether in the future, but at least for now I would consider this
request invalid since we don't have a replacement for it.

Title:
ubuntu-minimal should not depend on isc-dhcp-client
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
ubuntu-minimal already depends on `init` which depends on `systemd-
sysv` which depends on `systemd` which comes with `systemd-networkd`
that has a DHCP client in it.
Having the isc-dhcp-client package feels redundant.
