Package: dhcp3-client
Version: 3.1.1-3
Severity: normal
File: /sbin/dhclient-script

The dhclient-script(8) manpage states:

  If an error occurs during the execution of the script, it can set
  the exit_status variable to a nonzero value, and
  /sbin/dhclient-script will exit with that error code immediately
  after the client script exits.

This is not the case. It seems that

  set -e

is missing, and the logic in the run_hookdir function makes no
sense.
