Package: dhcpcd
Version: 1:3.2.3-5
Severity: normal
File: /sbin/dhcpcd-bin
I cannot pass -L (--noipv4ll) to dhcpcd. This is because dhcpcd
duplicates the interface of dhcpcd-bin and changes it a bit.
Instead of magic variables in /etc/default/dhcpcd, might I suggest
an option just to define a set of options that have to be present,
and then to process "$@" and these options one by one to produce the
set union to pass to dhcpcd-bin?

Oh, I forgot about this bug, after I found #578014, sorry. The
problem is that wicd calls dhcpcd-bin with the interface as first
argument. I just switched that to dhcpcd, which expects the
interface last, and it blew up. I was in a rush, so I didn't
properly verify.
Sorry, report closed.
