I wrapped it so that it was readable. You don't give a lot of debugging information about your problem so it's hard to say what it is. You say that: "the DHCPd service always reports a failure, no error message is generated (apart from copyright info and stuff on setting DNS option)", so what exactly is the text of the reported failure? Have you searched your /var/log/messages with grep -i "dhcp" /var/log/messages ? What does your /etc/dhpcd.conf look like?
