I upgraded one of two machines in a dhcp failover configuration from
etch to lenny today, only to find out that apparently dhcp failover
config has changed between ISC dhcpd 3.0 and 3.1. It is not possible to
run a mixed 3.0/3.1 failover configuration, nor is it possible to run a
. So I'm now running a single DHCP server at least until Monday, when
the other machine will be upgraded.
It would be nice if the postinst script of the package checked for a
failover config and issued a warning regarding this incompatibility.
