The code intends to do that. However dhcp6c double forks and it loses track about its child because of this (after all it already exited). I bet this was never exposed because Ubuntu uses isc-dhcp-client instead of wide-dhcpv6-client. *sigh* So Gasha's problem might have been the same problem in the end… Kind regards Philipp Kern
