I am sorry if I was unclear. I understand how it *should* work. But I
just do not see how it can possibly do it without extra patches:
{pts/0}% git show 0.8:src/dhcp-manager/Makefile.am
...
libdhcp_manager_la_SOURCES = \
nm-dhcp-manager.c \
nm-dhcp-manager.h \
nm-dhcp- DHCP_CLIENT@.c
So there no way for NM to include both dhclient and dhcpd.
Oh, and there are no options --with-dhclient or --with-dhcpd at all -
there is only option --with-dhcp-client=[dhclient|dhcpd]
So still the same question - is it some distro-specific patch?
Thank you!
