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

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