So if I'm reading James' comments correctly, this bug is not a little deal. Both Akash and I have encountered this in customer environments, and it leads to dhcpd not coming up when the interface is configured in MAAS. This is a non-obvious failure state and subsequently leads to several hours of hair-tearing-out trying to figure out why MAAS isn't booting a client system... Until you says to yourself, you says, "nah, it couldn't be something as silly as dhcpd not starting up when I configured the interface..."
It's not _necessarily_ a packaging bug as I would think that dhcpd needs to be told to Do The Right Thing (tm) whenever a network configuration is adjusted for any reason - add interface, remove interface, change IP range, etc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1274944 Title: maas-dhcp-server should be configured to start after all network interfaces it serves are up To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1274944/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
