            Bug ID: 281759
           Summary: net/dhcp6: dhcp6c rejects starting when mpd5 hsn't
                    finished yet
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

Running a small router/firewall selfmade appliance using mpd5 to connect to my
ISP via mpd5 PPPoE service via an external MODEM, starting dhcp6c client from
/etc/rc.conf.local will fail while mpd5 is still starting and establishing the
connection.

I could mitigate the problem successfuly changing the rc.d/dhcp6c srcipt line

 # REQUIRE: netif

to

 # REQUIRE: netif mpd5

This is a quick and dirty solution and there might be a more generalized and
cleaner solution?
