Description Till Maas 2010-02-02 17:20:00 UTC
Description of problem:
dhcp copies /etc/dhcp.conf to /etc/dhcp/dhcp.conf after installation, which leaves a confusing setup, because changes to /etc/dhcp.conf are not used by dhcpd.
It would be more obvious, if /etc/dhcp.conf would be also moved to e.g. /etc/dhcp.conf.rpmsave or similiar to show, that it is not used anymore. Or not to copy it at all would also be an option.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dhcp-4.1.0p1-17.fc12

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a /etc/dhcp.conf file
2. install dhcp

  
Actual results:
/etc/dhcp.conf is copied to /etc/dhcp/dhcp.conf, /etc/dhcp.conf stays unchaged.

Expected results:
It should be made obvious that /etc/dhcp.conf is no longer used
