dhcpcd, dhcpcd5, and possibly other ipv6 goodies

PPA description

Finding the right tools to let one take advantage of the Really Neat Things IPv6 supposedly lets one do seems to be insanely difficult, and almost always requires a newer release of whatever tool you're running to be able to do it.

This PPA tries to track the newer lines of development of one such tool, dhcpcd. It's left as an exercise to the reader if one wonders why the name of the package is dhcpcd5 :)

Package source tree for this build of dhcpcd5 is at:
