[b2a9f85]4<para><command>patch -Np1 -i ../dhcpcd-&dhcpcd-version;.patch
5</command> : <application>Dhcpcd</application> unpatched puts all configuration
6and temporary files in <filename>/etc/dhcpc</filename>. This becomes very
7annoying when <application>dhcpcd</application> tells you it's running and it's
8not. You look in <filename>/var/run</filename> for the pid file, but it's not
9there, the pid file that needs deleting is in <filename>/etc/dhcpc</filename>.
10This patch brings this program into <acronym>FHS</acronym> compliance, but more
11importantly, puts files where you expect them to be.</para>

[b2a9f85]13<para><command>--prefix=""</command> : There may be a good reason for
14abandoning the normal <acronym>BLFS</acronym> convention of using --prefix=/usr
15here. If you are installing <acronym>DHCP</acronym>, it is likely that it is
16required during the boot process and <filename>/usr</filename> may be network
17mounted in which case, <command>dhcpcd</command> wouldn't be available due to
18being on the network! Therefore, depending on your situation, you may want it
19to be installed in <filename>/sbin</filename> or <filename>/usr/sbin
20</filename>. This command installs to <filename>/sbin</filename>.</para>
