Now DHCP server send response with extra IP options. dhcpcd silently drop such responses but I think it shouldn't.

What do you think about such a situation?

Looking at the attached packet, there are no extra IP options as such - it's really quite basic, just Message Type, Server ID, Lease Time and Subnet mask.

All of these dhcpcd accepts and my local version accepted the packet just fine.

What dhcpcd version are you using?
