21 +The sys-apps/busybox package was recently removed from the system set.
22 +Users of net-misc/netifrc may have unknowingly relied upon this package
23 +to provide a DHCP client.
24 +
25 +If you are using netifrc and use DHCP for network connectivity, please
26 +ensure you have a supported DHCP client installed/selected in the
27 +Portage world file.
28 +
29 +Supported clients include:
30 +
31 +dhcpcd provided by net-misc/dhcpcd
32 +dhclient provided by net-misc/dhcp
33 +udhcpc provided by sys-apps/busybox
