Package: isc-dhcp-server
Version: 4.3.2-1
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
in order to address #592539, I have written a bunch of systemd units
which take care of starting isc-dhcp-server without the init script,
catering for IPv6 setups.
These units activate themselves for IPv4 if dhcpd.conf or dhcpd4.conf
is found, and for IPv6 if dhcp6d.conf is found. Due to shortcomings in
the semantics of a systemd unit, /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server is not
honored any more at all.
These are my first systemd units, so there might be beginner's errors.
They are meant to go in /lib/systemd/system, but were only tested on
my system in /etc/systemd/system.

I place those unit files under the ISC license and will relicense
freely if asked to by the package maintainers to ease packaging for
Debian.
