In Fedora, there are lots of important patches to the ISC DHCP suite: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/dhcp.git/tree/dhcp.spec The patches are commented, so it should not be too hard to distinguish patches we want from patches we don't want. The upstream project is pretty much dead and nobody knows if it ever starts again to accept patches or not. A notable patch dhcp-4.2.4-P1-interval.patch fixes a problem that caused many people not to be able to connect to the wireless network at GUADEC. But there may be other important fixes. Of course, if anyone has an idea how to upstream the patches or keep a reasonable cross-distro patchset, it will be most welcome.

(In reply to comment #1) > Mailing lists, requests and reporting information can be found at > > http://www.isc.org/software/dhcp/news The link in this bug reports points to the Fedora spec file. The %patch commands in the spec file are commented. All patches that were already submitted to ISC are marked as such. I kindly ask you to read the description in this bug report once again and more carefully.
