Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.7.8
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When specifying the hostname in /etc/network/interfaces, dhcpc issues the 
following warning:

option -h NAME is deprecated, use -x hostname:NAME

Example /etc/network/interfaces:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
hostname "myhostname"

Note dhcpc still send the correct parameters to the dhcp server, however it 
would be nice if the warning was removed by updating the debian ifup scripts
