Bug Description

Trying to run dhclient to get an IPv6 address:

sudo dhclient -6 eth0
/sbin/dhclient-script: 55: /sbin/dhclient-script: shopt: not found
/sbin/dhclient-script: 60: /sbin/dhclient-script: [[: not found
/sbin/dhclient-script: 68: /sbin/dhclient-script: shopt: not found

The command gives the above 3 errors, and no lease is accepted.
