I agree that in a perfect world we'd check for the network interfaces
and start isc-dhcp based on that, however this involves rather complex
parsing of the dhcpd.conf configuration and then dynamic update of the
upstart job, which is close to impossible (and not allowed by standard
packaging policies).
I can see a few ways to solve your issue however:
- Don't use NetworkManager
- Add a hook in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ which starts isc-dhcp
whenever the network comes online
Marking the bug as Won't fix as properly fixing this would mean a lot of
changes in various bits (isc-dhcp, upstart, network-manager, ...) which
we don't intend to do in the near future.
** Changed in: isc-dhcp (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Won't Fix
