depends of your preferences (sources.list) files. If your configuration point 
to testing it would choose the testing version of the package, also the sid 
version.

Hans, 

I trust a lot in the maintainers and debian in general. I think that that the 
version of the package is the minor of problems if you are using a 
dhcp-client in a common scenario.
In general, the stable (etch) version is maintained, not orphaned in the 
meantime. Remember the "debian way of life":
- sid ---> testing ---> stable

Leo

Hi Leo !
This was a fast answer. :) 

Well, what I really wanted to know, which dhcp-version I should use at using 
1. debian/testing 
2. debian/sid

(these are both, I use). 

Which is the default ? I think, there are different behaviours at the 
versions. At the moment I use dhcp3-client, which seem to be the newest one. 
But is it also good for newbies ??? Are the older ones orphaned in the 
meantime ?

The documentation did not answer the questions I have.

regards

Hans

Which dhcp-version ???

2007-10-09 Thread Hans-J. Ullrich
Dear maintainers,

I wondered , which is the default version of dhclient is been installed by the 
debian installation process. I saw several different versions nd my last 
fresh installation is a long time ago (yes, Debian is running and running and 
running...). :) Well, at a fresh installation I use tasksel, which does not 
really show, what happens ( --task-desc does not work).

Can you tell me, which is the "state-of-the-art"-version is used in debian 
today? dhcpd ? dhcp-client ? dhcp3-client ?

Thanks for your answers !

Regards  

Hans
