Bug description:
  dhclient has been used as the dhcp client in Ubuntu and debian for
  many years. Over time, many packages have integrated with dhclient.
  The list below is of packages that have declared a dependency and
  those that have shipped hooks to be invoked by dhclient.

  As we move to systemd-networkd these will have to be addressed.

  # ./get-rdeps isc-dhcp-client | sort -u
  breaks - initramfs-tools (initramfs-tools)
  depends - dracut (dracut-network)
  depends - isc-dhcp (isc-dhcp-client-ddns)
  depends - libguestfs (libguestfs0)
  depends - maas (python3-maas-provisioningserver)
  depends - netscript-2.4 (netscript-2.4)
  depends - network-manager (network-manager)
  depends - ubuntu-meta (ubuntu-minimal)
  depends - walinuxagent (walinuxagent)
  depends - whereami (whereami)
  depends - wicd (wicd-daemon)
  depends - wifi-radar (wifi-radar)
  enhances - resolvconf (resolvconf)
  recommends - avahi (avahi-autoipd)
  recommends - ifupdown (ifupdown)
  recommends - ifupdown2 (ifupdown2)
  recommends - madwimax (madwimax)

  $ apt-file search '/etc/dhcp/' | grep 'hooks.d/' | sed 's,:.*,,' | sort -u
  avahi-autoipd
  cloud-init
  controlaula
  ddclient
  isc-dhcp-client
  ntp
  ntpdate
  openresolv
  resolvconf
  samba-common
  sendmail-base
  systemd
  whereami

  Another possible integration point that is not likely listed in the package
  dependencies is reading of the leases file for additional information.
  As an example, Azure advertises the location of its http based metadata
  service as an option in a dhclient response.  cloud-init will read the
  lease files to find the correct address.
