Title:
  missing dependency on isc-dhcp-client (dhclient)

Status in cloud-init package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  cloud-init uses isc-dhcp-client (through 'dhclient') to obtain temporary
  dhcp ip addresses.  It currently does not identify a dependency on it.

  initramfs-tools uses dhclient in scripts/functions to obtain ipv6 addresses
  (see bug 1621507 for more info).

  This bug was prompted by MP to remove isc-dhcp-client from the ubuntu-minimal 
seed
