The Internet Systems Consortium has stopped maintaining their DHCP client, which is standard on a lot of distros.
Debian has updated its documentation and now warns users to choose an alternative:

On Debian Unstable, I was already forced to uninstall it in yesterday’s upgrade.
If you’re using network-manager, you don’t need to worry, since it includes its own dhcp client, but for others, this might be relevant.
On Arch, this concerns the dhcpd package:

God i hate network manager and the vpnc plugin specifically. Its been broken for almost 2 years. You cannot add a vpnc vpn in network manager.
What’s broken? I just added a vpnc connection on my machine (granted can’t test it since I have nothing to connect to) but there was a vpnc connection profile until I deleted it.
Context. Still broken in 23.04

What distro? Might be gnome only. Im on latestest budgie and cant add. Theres github issues etc. I can edit the file by hand and it works so no biggie but its a long standing issue
OK, I tested this on Plasma.
