Package: isc-dhcp-client
Version: 4.1.1-P1-3
Severity: important

Hi,

contrary to the 4.1.1-2 changelog, the isc-dhcp-client package from
experimental does not support DHCPv6.
Checking debian/rules, it still has
--disable-dhcpv6
and an (outdated) comment about why DHCPv6 should be disabled.

I'm marking the bug as important as the new NetworkManager package will
depend on proper DHCPv6 support in isc-dhcp-client.

Cheers,
Michael
