Telecom & Networking Systems Engineer -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to isc-dhcp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1546358 Title: policycoreutils (in universe) is installed by default by isc-dhcp- server as it is a Recommends Status in isc-dhcp package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Policycoreutils is being installed by default because the package is listed as a Recommends. This package, however, is in universe and seems to be pulling selinux. This should not be a recommends but rather, it should be a Suggests. It seems that the postinst requires a binary being shipped in policycoreutils: debian/isc-dhcp-server.postinst:test ! -x /sbin/restorecon || /sbin/restorecon /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/isc-dhcp/+bug/1546358/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
