Please add -d to your dhcpcd options and provide a log file of it failing along with your emerge --info output. Attach both to the bug. If you can capture wireshark traces of dhcpcd-2.0.5 and 3.0.16 as well it would be helpful too. Thanks Also, please test using the -l option to specify a leasetime. Roy, thank you for the -d hint. So it turned out that I used the -D in /etc/conf.d/net. But this options is obviously no longer supported:
#/sbin/dhcpcd -h lab5 -DH -N -t 10 -m 2000 ath0 -l 100 -d
/sbin/dhcpcd: invalid option -- D
The manpage of 2.0.5 says:
-D Forces dhcpcd to set domainname of the host to the domainname
option supplied by DHCP server.
But 3.0.16 fails with this option.
I can live without it, but wonder why they removed this option while -H is still present.
Anyway, thanks and please close this report.

Ah easy one. Setting the dns domain name is done via /etc/resolv.conf only and the existing implementation was buggy. With dhcpcd-3 if you need to tweak resolv.conf then use a resolvconf manager like resolvconf-gentoo. -H is still valid :) A warning during upgrade would have been nice. |
