This bug was fixed in the package dhcp3 - 3.1.1-1ubuntu1

---------------
dhcp3 (3.1.1-1ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Merge from debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - debian/control, debian/dhcp3-server.init.d: LSB init script.
      (Debian #486508)
    - Deroot server (Debian #308832)
      + debian/patches/droppriv.dpatch, deroot-server.dpatch: Code changes.
      + debian/control: Build-depend on libcap-dev.
      + debian/dhcp3-server.post{inst,rm}: Create/remove dhcpd system user.
      + debian/dhcp3-server.init.d: Create paths with appropriate permissions
        for dhcpd system user access.
    - Send hostname to DHCP server by default (LP #10239, Debian #151820):
      + debian/patches/dynamic-hostname.dpatch: Add support for a new string
        type 'h' which behaves like 't' except that '<hostname>' is changed to
        the current hostname. Change 'host-name' DHCP option type from 't' to 'h'.
      + debian/dhclient.conf: Enable send-hostname by default.
    - debian/rules: Remove client/scripts/debian on clean again.
      (Debian #486514)
    - dhclient-onetry-call-clientscript.dpatch: Call 'dhclient-script FAIL'
      when failing to get an address also when operating in oneshot mode (-1).
      This fixes avahi-autoipd invocation through dhcdbd. (Debian #486520)
    - debian/dhcp3-server.init.d, debian/dhcp3-server.postinst: Do not install
      unnecessary rc.d symlinks for levels 0 and 6, for faster shutdown.
      (Debian #486518)
    - debian/dhclient-script.linux: Do not clobber old search/domain values if
      we didn't get any from the DHCP response. (Debian #486535)
    - debian/patches/dhcpd.conf-subnet-examples.dpatch: Give an example for
      subnet-mask in dhcpd.conf. (LP #26661)
    - dhclient-more-debug.dpatch: Show the requested/offered client IP in log
      output, for better debugging. (LP #35265, Debian #486611)
    - debian/dhclient-script.linux: Wait for /etc/resolv.conf to become writable.
    - revert-next-server.dpatch: Revert the need of the next-server option in
      dhcpd.conf so it points to the own IP again for tftp if the option is not
      set. (Patch by Oliver Grawert; disputed upstream)
    - debian/dhcp3-server.init.d: Allow LTSP to override default configuration
      in /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf. Point that out in a header comment in
      debian/dhcpd.conf. (Ubuntu specific)
    - debian/dhcp3-server.config: Drop debconf question to medium. (Ubuntu
      specific)
  * Drop obsolete Ubuntu changes:
    - debian/dhclient.conf: Get the interface-mtu parameter again. Previous
      Ubuntu versions ignored it because of broken old DHCP servers which hand
      out the wrong value. (LP#61989) However, this breaks correct and
      deliberately sent non-default values, which is a bigger pain. If this is
      still an issue, a better fix is to discard unplausibly low values only.
    - Drop the client derooting patch. It is very intrusive, never offered true
      protection (susceptible to $PATH injection and other bypasses), and is a
      constant source of bugs. (LP: #39249)
    - Drop the pm-utils hook for stopping/starting dhcp3-server on
      suspend/resume. This was necessary in the acpi-support ages (which tore
      down ethernet interfaces on resume), but pm-utils does not do that any
      more.
  * debian/patches/deroot-server.dpatch: Juggle Makefile.dist patch to not
    conflict with ldap patch.
  * dhclient-more-debug.dpatch: Fix printing of address when renewing a lease
    (printed "<null address>" before). (LP: #35265)

    option and the new treatment of the domain-name option in light of it

    domain-search option

dhcp3 (3.1.0-2) unstable; urgency=low
