(Get the code!)
I don't think this bug is really fixed. At least not in the versions which are in precise: isc-hdcp-
The problem occurs, if a dhcp server is not availlable for some time. Then dhclient will send one DHCP-REQUEST on ifup or lease renewal and might never get an answer inside the timeout interval because this one DHCP-REQUEST package might get lost. Then dhclient will terminate and the interface will get never configured, thus making the host unavaillable from the network.
