Package: udhcpd
Severity: normal

When you use dhcpd from the dhcp3-server package, and your
kernel doesnt have CONFIG_PACKET and CONFIG_FILTER enabled,
it dies leaving the following message in syslog:

  dhcpd: socket: Protocol not available - make sure
  dhcpd: CONFIG_PACKET (Packet socket) and CONFIG_FILTER
  dhcpd: (Socket Filtering) are enabled in your kernel

In contrast, udhcpd runs without noticing this, so the
dhcp server will not work in the network and the user will
be confused because udhcpd is running without errors.
