I've been working on getting avahi-autoipd to work as a fallback to DHCP.
The desired functionality is that if no DHCP server is found, an IP address
gets autoallocated.
I've found that the -1 option to dhclient stops the FAIL (etc) events from
being given
to the exit scripts if the dhcp fails. This stops the zzz_avahiautoipd script
from running.
My patch for this was to replace dhclient with a script that ran dhclient with
no '-1' option. This got more or less the desired functionality (I can supply
scripts and logs)
Could we have an option to suppress the '-1'? See also #694541
