Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.7
Severity: important

dhclient is invoked from ifupdown like this:
dhclient3 -pf /var/run/dhclient.%iface%.pid -lf /var/run/dhclient.%iface
%.leases %iface%

But initscripts cleans /var/run on startup which renders the leases file
useless.

The obvious fix would be to change the -lf parameter
(using /var/lib/dhcp[3] which is the default in dhclient would be a good
choice).

Alternatively initscripts could be modified not to delete leases files
in /etc/init.d/bootclean.sh.
