Title:
  Missing /var/lib/dhcp3 directory

Status in “isc-dhcp” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In a clean Ubuntu 11.10 server install, dhclient3 is run with a
  configuration parameter that instructs it to write lease files in  the
  "/var/lib/dhcp3". That directory is missing in the install, thus no
  lease file is written.

  
  # ps ax | grep dhclient3 | grep -v grep
    665 ?        Ss     0:00 dhclient3 -e IF_METRIC=100 -pf /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid -lf /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases -1 eth0

  # ls -l /var/lib/ | grep dhcp
  drwxr-xr-x 2 root      root    4096 2011-12-30 16:24 dhcp

  (no dhcp3 dir!)

  # ls -l /var/lib/dhcp/
  total 0
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2011-12-30 16:24 dhclient.leases

  # cat /etc/lsb-release
