[pkg-dhcp-devel] Bug#720860: Still fails to start without a dhcpd.leases file

[martin f krafft]

Package: isc-dhcp-server
Version: 4.2.4-7
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

I have /var/lib/dhcp on tmpfs, due to various reasons. dhcpd still
fails to load if the file /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases does not exist.
Please make sure that the init script creates it if not already
present.
