Hi List!

dhcpcd-7.0.0-rc4 has been released with the following changes:
  *  Mark routes as set by RA/DHCP in Linux
  *  Don't flush prefix routes/routers if kernel does not support RA
  *  Remove OpenBSD route labels
  *  dhcp: improve errors around UDP checksum failure
  *  dhcp: announce existing addresses before rebooting
  *  bpf: rework loop so that we can close/reopen fd inside and abort
  *  ipv6nd: don't handle NA/RA for non active interfaces
  *  dhcp6: listen on all addresses in non master mode
  *  dhcpcd-run-hooks: set protocol in dhcpcd, don't guess
  *  Ensure that xid is unique across all interfaces
  *  dhcp6: redirect message to interface which uses the xid
  *  bsd: strip scope from LL addresses when detecting their addition
  *  ipv6nd: fix address lifetime overflow on carrier up
  *  dhcp6: fix confirmation of lease on carrier up
  *  eloop: fix signal catching before eloop is started on Linux

I was hoping this would be the final 7.0.0 release, but two of the above fixes were quite invasive. Maybe there will be zero issues at Christmas :)
