Description nilburn 2023-04-17 08:08:31 UTC

When the version of dhcpcd is increased to 10.0.0, the version check performed in net/dhcpcd.sh does not work.

This happens because the version number is matched as a string instead of being compared numerically.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
'The dhcpcd version is too old. Please upgrade.' is displayed and an error occurs.
