So I have improved the request. In wireshark, I can see my dhcp6 request

I still get "unknown type: binflags" when launching the command.
Sounds like your dhcpcd is too old.
Works fine here using dhcpcd-7.0.3
Could I get rid of the vendor info in the request ? I don't have it in
the reference.

And could I actually set dhcpcd to send the DUID-LL
instead of the DUID-LLT ?
Currently not by default.
However, you can edit the duid file (default /var/db/dhcpcd/duid *) and
put your down duid in there.
(Yes, I know, I am quite boring but apparently the ISP's routers only
let pass exactly the dhcp requests that match those they know.)
Something else (more bothering than bug) : I need to list one by one
each dhcp6 option in the conf' :
option dhcp6_sip_servers_names
option dhcp6_sip_servers_addresses
option dhcp6_name_servers
option dhcp6_domain_search
It would be a serious improvement to be able to list them (coma
separated list for ex...)
Again, this works fine for me.
You didn't say what dhcpcd version you're using, so I suggest using
dhcpcd-7.0.3 and trying that.

* Upgrading from dhcpcd-6 to dhcpcd-7 changes a few default file
locations around. The duid might change and when dhcpcd-7 runs for the
first time a new one could be generated.
