Description Stefan Reimer 2012-10-03 23:57:55 UTC

dhclient running on VMs using virtio needs this patch which is not upstream yet:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=dhcp-4.2.2-xen-checksum.diff&package=dhcp.219&project=openSUSE%3A12.1%3AUpdate&rev=6435d3e811016f917d28e785efa39fbd

Patch and ebuild are in my overlay:
http://www.startux.de/gitweb/quarks.git/blob/66a74770e91056c98dfb6ffdbe989088c2a08b0a:/net-misc/dhcp/files/dhcp-4.2.2-xen-checksum.patch
