Summary: libdhcp : IPv6 and IPv4 DHCP client and network configuration library API https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=192413 ------- Additional Comments From jvdias@xxxxxxxxxx 2006-06-05 17:49 EST ------- Great news! I'm glad to hear loader2 will now be IPv6 capable with libdhcp usage. I've also just heard that libdhcp has been added to the dist-fc6 brew package list, and it is now building in brew - the packages should be in tomorrow's rawhide. RE: > pump compatibility layer ... we shouldn't be making other users aware of that > API as something they can rely on forever Actually, adding the pump.[ch] Doxygen documentation was something I hadn't got around to yet ... I guess I'll continue holding off on that. The pump API is entirely superfluous as is, and is just a wrapper around the underlying libdhcp API, which is fully Doxygen documented. > Are there plans to get the ISC client library patches integrated upstream? > Are there plans to merge the ISC client libraries in to one ? As for 'fully integrated', probably not, but ISC have already agreed to ship dhcdbd in the contrib/ directory of their source tarball, so would probably be amenable to shipping the libdhcp4client patch in contrib/ also. DHCPv6 is not an ISC product, but is a sourceforge project - I can attach the libdhcp6client patch in sourceforge, so that should not be a problem - I'll get going on this now. Bear in mind that libdhcp (and dhcdbd) are actually a stopgap until ISC release their super-duper integrated DHCP and DHCPv6 natively D-BUS based server and client, which is rumored to be in dhcp-4.0.x, to be released within the next year or so (I have not heard any hard dates yet) .
