Pydhcplib is a library to read, write, encode, and
decode DHCP packets on a network. It also includes
an admnistrator tool to send and receive DHCP
traffic.

This release adds network listening capabilities for the client without an Internet address set: now pydhcplib can be used to write a real DHCP client, not just admin tools. Updated error handling. Many bugs have been fixed, and human-friendly output in the pydhcp administrator tool has been updated.
This release fixes a critical error when generating DHCP packets: the DHCP magic cookie is now correctly set. The socket SO_REUSEADDR is set when clients are listening: a client instance can now listen even if a port is already in use.
An error on option name (root_path to boot_path)
was corrected. French man pages were added for
pydhcp and for some pydhclib classes. An import
error in the pydhcp tool was corrected.
