Description Martin Osvald 🛹 2023-10-30 13:31:36 UTC
Description of problem:

ISC dhcp is no longer maintained upstream since the end of 2022. The
Infrastructure Services team is not planning to support it in RHEL 10.
Your RHEL package libguestfs currently has a dependency on dhcp-client. We
recommend that you remove this dependency and use an alternative DHCP
client such as dhcpcd, busybox's udhcpc, or internal dhcp client provided
by NetworkManager/systemd-networkd.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

libguestfs-1:1.51.7-4.fc40

Steps to Reproduce:

# repoquery --enablerepo=\* --whatrequires dhcp-client
...
libguestfs-1:1.51.7-4.fc40

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2023-10-30 14:37:36 UTC
Dependency should be removed & replaced with dhcpcd in this build:
