Package: dhcp3-client
Version: 3.0.4-13
Severity: wishlist

Hello!

dhcp3-client from etch currently does not send a vendor-class-identifier, 
and therefore makes it not-so-easy to deliver special options for Linux 
DHCP clients.

I'd suggest, that the default Debian installation of dhcp3-client shall
add something along:
  send vendor-class-identifier "Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 etch";
Or similar; or maybe just "Debian dhcp3 $VERSION", if calling uname() 
is not feasible.

Thanks,
Christian
