"Packages that care about networking support in the initramfs should instead take care themselves to depend on isc-dhcp-client."
Reworded: Packages that care about <function> should take care to depend on <package> themselves. Generally that's not how things work, and results in maintenance elsewhere. Now *those* packages had to be updated, and later on have to be fixed if initramfs-tools ever updated again should initramfs-tools ever update its implementation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to initramfs-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1759307 Title: missing dependency on isc-dhcp-client (dhclient) Status in cloud-init package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: cloud-init uses isc-dhcp-client (through 'dhclient') to obtain temporary dhcp ip addresses. It currently does not identify a dependency on it. initramfs-tools uses dhclient in scripts/functions to obtain ipv6 addresses (see bug 1621507 for more info).
