Heads up...

The dhclient.leases file format in /var/lib/dhclient has changed as of ISC DHCP 4.x.x.  I'll clean up the postinstall scriptlet in the package to make sure old files are removed on package upgrade, but since 4.0.0-2.fc9 is already there, many of you are bound to hit this problem.

If you upgrade to dhclient-4.0.0-2.fc9 and then try running it, you'll notice it segfaults immediately.  It won't even display the usage screen.  Clean out the /var/lib/dhclient directory to fix this problem:

	rm /var/lib/dhclient/*

And then you can run dhclient (via ifup, manually, or via NetworkManager) again.

A bug is already filed for this problem (#428785) and the -3.fc9 build will fix this issue.
