Bug#708811: most problems fixed. dhcp server still not functioning

[Hendrik Boom <hendrik@topoi.pooq.com>]

Well, the thought involved in writing the upgrade report was helpful.  
It forced me to sit and think while waiting for a reply.  Even without a 
reply, that helped.

I did some more hacking.  Of course I should have tried apt-get -f 
install.  That indeed fixed most of the problems.  But didn't get the 
dhcp server to work.

Now the dhcp I was running turned out to date back to etch.  Just 
possibly it was too out-of-date to work any more.

But installing the current isc-dhcp-server doesn't work either.
running /etc/init.d/isc-dhcp-server start
gives me a FAILED message with a request to look up details in syslog.
But /etc/var/syslog hasn't been updated for two days.  What's wrong 
here?  Should I be looking elsewhere for the log messages from the 
dhcp server?
