[pkg-dhcp-devel] Bug#760170: isc-dhcp-server installation failed

[Bryan Garber da Silva]

This bug is happening to me. I've never configured a DHCP server on this
machine and was tryingo to install one.

Configurando isc-dhcp-server (4.3.1-5) ...
Generating /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server...
Job for isc-dhcp-server.service failed. See 'systemctl status
isc-dhcp-server.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
invoke-rc.d: initscript isc-dhcp-server, action "start" failed.
dpkg: erro ao processar o pacote isc-dhcp-server (--configure):
 sub-processo script post-installation instalado retornou estado de saída
de erro 1
Erros foram encontrados durante o processamento de:
 isc-dhcp-server
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

It seems to me that it is trying to start a server *WITHOUT* any
configuration file:

● isc-dhcp-server.service - LSB: DHCP server

   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Qui 2014-11-06 15:36:21 BRST;

Couldn't we just install the package and leave to the user start or not the
service?
