Hello Rafael, or anyone else affected, Accepted isc-dhcp into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/isc- dhcp/4.3.5-3ubuntu7.2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: isc-dhcp (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed-bionic -- 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/1894172 Title: isc-dhcp-server using wrong env variable for INTERFACES Status in isc-dhcp package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in isc-dhcp source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in isc-dhcp source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in isc-dhcp source package in Groovy: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] When checking isc-dhcp-server unit file it was seen that isc-dhcp- server is being started by: ConditionPathExists=/etc/default/isc-dhcp-server ConditionPathExists=|/etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf ConditionPathExists=|/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf [Service] EnvironmentFile=/etc/default/isc-dhcp-server RuntimeDirectory=dhcp-server # The leases files need to be root:dhcpd even when dropping privileges ExecStart=/bin/sh -ec '\ CONFIG_FILE=/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf; \ if [ -f /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf ]; then CONFIG_FILE=/etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf; fi; \ [ -e /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases ] || touch /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases; \ chown root:dhcpd /var/lib/dhcp /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases; \ chmod 775 /var/lib/dhcp ; chmod 664 /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases; \ exec dhcpd -user dhcpd -group dhcpd -f -4 -pf /run/dhcp-server/dhcpd.pid -cf $CONFIG_FILE $INTERFACES' But the /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server file sets $INTERFACESv4 and $INTERFACESv6. This causes the service to listen on all interfaces, which is what the user might not want. In case the user wants to use *only* IPv6 and not IPv4, this could maybe lead to problems as what the user intended to do could be really different from what the outcome turns out to be (because of this bug). The previous upload(er) forgot to mention (and split) the INTERFACES variable to v4 and v6 and as a result, it has been this way for so long. The SRU would split the variables into respective names, thereby making sure that what /etc/default/isc-dhcp-serve sets, is available in the respective service file. [Test Plan] To reproduce this bug, simply do the following: $ lxc launch ubuntu-daily:focal isc-dhcp-lp1894172-focal $ lxc shell isc-dhcp-lp1894172-focal # apt update && apt install isc-dhcp-server -y # grep "INTERFACES" /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server INTERFACESv4="" INTERFACESv6="" grep "INTERFACES" /lib/systemd/system/isc-dhcp-server.service exec dhcpd -user dhcpd -group dhcpd -f -4 -pf /run/dhcp-server/dhcpd.pid -cf $CONFIG_FILE $INTERFACES' # grep "INTERFACES" /lib/systemd/system/isc-dhcp-server6.service exec dhcpd -user dhcpd -group dhcpd -f -6 -pf /run/dhcp-server/dhcpd6.pid -cf $CONFIG_FILE $INTERFACES' With this, it is clearly visible that even though /lib/systemd/system /isc-dhcp-server{,6}.service file uses the INTERFACES variable but the /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server defines 2 different variables, INTERFACESv4 and INTERFACESv6. After the SRU is performed, the respective services files should use INTERFACESv4 and INTERFACESv6 variable, instead of just INTERFACES. To ensure smooth upgrade of this package, we'd check if the user hasn't manually set a INTERFACESv{4,6} variable to workaround this bug. If they have, then we simply check and make sure, we use the correct variable. [Where problems could occur] The problem could occur if the user has manually set some different workaround for this bug and so the usual upgrade could break some of their old configuration(s).
