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 ?
apt-get update;

Is this what you wanted?

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
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.
(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 ?
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
