If not - I can't find how to fix things. Setup: Ubuntu 22.04, with ubuntu-minimal installed (which depends on isc-dhcp-client). A network with a bridge interface. This can be anything, even an old /etc/network/interfaces file will do. For simplicity, the following netplan setup is used: network: version: 2 ethernets: enp4s0: wakeonlan: true dhcp4: no dhcp6: no bridges: br0: interfaces: [enp4s0] dhcp4: yes dhcp6: yes parameters: stp: false forward-delay: 0 What happens: Starting this machine will, during initrd phase, make dhclient fetch an IP address for enp4s0. Then netplan takes over and fetches an address for br0. If both enp4s0 and br0 have the same IP address from the DHCP-server, the machine will not be reachable. What should happen: enp4s0 should not get an IP address, as the netplan-configuration clearly says. A workaround is to remove isc-dhcp-client (which, in turn, removes meta-package ubuntu-minimal) and run update-initramfs -k all -u; afterwards, the dhclient in initrd is (obviously) not there anymore.
