Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dhcp3-client

dhclient cannot access files in /var/lib/dhcp3.  This results in messages like
    dhclient: can't create /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases:
    Permission denied

# ls -l a /var/lib/dhcp3/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Nov 21 21:28 .
drwxr-xr-x 51 root root 4096 May  1 07:45 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    0 Nov 21 21:28 dhclient.leases

This bug has apparently been reported before in Dapper as #24292,
#26645.

I noticed this bug using Gutsy, but a quick look at the package from Intrepid
shows no reason that the newer version is no longer affected.

Ansgar
