[Bug 1752142] Re: systemd-networkd supports neither MAC address DHCP nor SendHostname - DO NOT RELEASE BIONIC WITHOUT CHANGING BACK TO dhclient PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE (or else configure netplan to use these options properly)

[Robie Basak]

Thank you for your report. This bug is better filed against netplan in
the first instance, so the netplan developers can consider your use
case.

If I were you, I'd expand on your use case, explaining what you're doing
and why you need it and so forth, if you want anything addressed before
Bionic's release.

Note though that according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Netplan using
ifupdown is still an option - you just need to request that explicitly
at install time (or switch later).

** Package changed: systemd (Ubuntu) => nplan (Ubuntu)

** Summary changed:

- systemd-networkd supports neither MAC address DHCP nor SendHostname - DO NOT RELEASE BIONIC WITHOUT CHANGING BACK TO dhclient PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE (or else configure netplan to use these options properly)
+ netplan's networkd renderer supports neither MAC address DHCP nor SendHostname

Title:
  netplan's networkd renderer supports neither MAC address DHCP nor
  SendHostname

Status in nplan package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The default behavior with netplan is dramatically different from
  dhclient.  You are going to cause a lot of headaches if you don't
  change it to use MAC addresses and SendHostname by default -- or at
  least give us a way to configure this behavior in Netplan.
