Package: isc-dhcp-server
Version: 4.1.1-P1-15+squeeze9
Severity: critical
File: /usr/sbin/dhcpd
Justification: breaks unrelated software
dhcpd stopped working today and could not be restarted with 'service
isc-dhcp-server restart'. It reported a configuration check failure
but the configuration file had not been modified for months. I found this also
reported here:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2016/01/msg00675.html
Adding a symlink from /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf to /etc/ fixed the problem and
allowed the service to start.
