content-type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; format="flowed" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-RT-Original-Encoding: ISO-8859-15 Content-Length: 793 Unlike dhcp 3.x, dhcp 4.x scans interfaces from /proc/net/dev, which provides only true interface names. When the address set on the interface has a label assigned (linux 2.0 alias interface compatibility), then the SIOCGIFADDR requires the label / alias name as argument instead of the interface name to return this address. When this is the only address assigned to an interface, dhcp-server is unable to find any address and fails to start. Changed to use getifaddrs() function, which retrieves all IP addresses on linux systems and is available since GLIBC 2.3.
