Hi,

Yesterday I installed a 15-BETA1 jail using pkgbase FreeBSD-set-minimal-jail.
I was missing FreeBSD-dhclient which is fine and I installed it. Then it didn't have DNS as FreeBSD-resolvconf was missing.
I understand that theoretically dhclient can operate without resolvconf, but in practice they seem pretty useful together.

Should FreeBSD-dhclient depend on FreeBSD-resolvconf?

Regards,
Ronald.
