Description

Inetutils 1.5 has started shipping a version of ifconfig.

I find that the ifconfig in inetutils does not accept the command "ifconfig <interface> 0 up" as issued by dhclient-script. (This seems to be a bug in their parameter parsing.)

At the very least you must decide if you want their version or the version in net-tools. I recommend --disable-ifconfig to the inetutils build. This would apply to BLFS also.
