Bug 114519 – sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre11-r3 doesn't honour dhcp_* options for dhcpcd

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description comabug 2005-12-05 04:17:04 UTC]

In sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre11-r3 /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/dhcpcd
doesn't honour the dhcp_* options in /ect/conf.d/net. For example it sends the
hostname even if dhcp_eth0="nosendhost".

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add config_eth0=( "dhcp" ) and dhcp_eth0="nosendhost" to /etc/conf.d/net.
2. /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
3. Notice that dhcpcd has "-h hostname" in its command line.
Actual Results:  
The hostname is sent to the dhcp server.

Expected Results:  
There should have been no "-h hostname" used.

A fix for this is to insert the line 'd="${!d}"' below line 93 of
/lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/dhcpcd. Patch attached.
