For anyone affected by this bug and who can't wait for the bugfix to
land, you can simply edit /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.dhcpd and apply the
following diff, then do "sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor reload".

Title:
  Last nights isc-dhcp-server update fails to start

Status in “isc-dhcp” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “isc-dhcp” source package in Quantal:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  == Rational ==
  The recent isc-dhcp SRU to quantal introduced a patch that fixes cases where checksum offloading would cause the checksum to be empty by having dhcpd re-calculate the checksum in those case.

  This requires dhcpd to use raw sockets, unfortunately I forgot to
  allow those in the apparmor profile.

  I've had 3 report so far of people who got a broken dhcpd post-upgrade
  and I suspect the number to be far higher.

  The fix simply copies the apparmor profile as we have it in raring
  which allows the extra socket type.

  == Test case ==
  1) Install dhcpd on a machine that does checksum offloading (virtual machine with virtio for example) or uses infiniband
  2) Check that dhcpd starts

  == Regression potential ==
  This is a direct copy of the apparmor profile from raring. The dmesg entry below quite clearly matches the socket type, so I don't expect any regression to happen.

  
  --- Original bug report ---
  This is Ubuntu 12.10

  Start-Date: 2013-04-22  20:48:32
  Commandline: apt-get --assume-yes dist-upgrade
  Upgrade: isc-dhcp-client:i386 (4.2.4-1ubuntu10.1, 4.2.4-1ubuntu10.2), isc-dhcp-common:i386 (4.2.4-1ubuntu10.1, 4.2.4-1ubuntu10.2), isc-dhcp-server:i386 (4.2.4-1ubuntu10.1, 4.2.4-1ubuntu10.2)
  End-Date: 2013-04-22  20:49:28

  I forced a downgrade to the previous packages isc-dhcp-client_4.2.4-1ubuntu10.1_i386.deb
  isc-dhcp-common_4.2.4-1ubuntu10.1_i386.deb isc-dhcp-server_4.2.4-1ubuntu10.1_i386.deb and it is working now.

  Here a few of the log entries from when it was working to when it
  stopped working:
