Public bug reported:
/sbin/dhclient-script in precise's isc-dhcp-client 4.1.ESV-R4-0ubuntu5.8
contains the following snippet:
BOUND6|RENEW6|REBIND6)
if [ -z "${new_ip6_address}" ] || [ -z "${new_ip6_prefixlen}" ]; then
exit_with_hooks 2
fi
# set leased IP
ip -6 addr add ${new_ip6_address}/${new_ip6_prefixlen} \
dev ${interface} scope global
This assumes that the result of the DHCPv6 transaction is an address
with a prefix, which is the case for stateful DHCPv6. For stateless
DHCPv6, however, we only get additional information that's not directly
address-related. This is fixed in saucy and reads like this:
BOUND6|RENEW6|REBIND6)
if [ "${new_ip6_address}" ] && [ "${new_ip6_prefixlen}" ]; then
# set leased IP
ip -6 addr add ${new_ip6_address}/${new_ip6_prefixlen} \
dev ${interface} scope global
fi
It looks like the only change from the diff to the current saucy version
we need for it to work correctly.
