How to enforce use of dhcpcd instead of dhclient in debian/testing?

[wzab <wzab@ise.pw.edu.pl>]

Hi,

I have a problem with wireless networking on my laptop (uses iwl3945
wireless).
When dhclient3 is used to obtain IP address via DHCP, the connection is
unstable. Especially when I move my laptop to another location and switch
to another network, the IP is not obtained at all or connection is
established only for a very short time.

I was able to fix it by uninstalling the dhcp3-client package. In this case
the dhcpcd is used for obtaining IP, which works flawlessly.

Unfortunately dhcp3-client is suggested by different packages, so when I
update my system it often gets reinstalled unless I explicitly deselect it.
That's really tiring.

Is there any way to assign dhcpcd higher priority than dhclient3 when my
system is going to obtain IP?
