Check to see if that's a 'just in case' option or if it's actually automatic.

@ekkithump, what benefit would that have? This regex is actually the same one dhcpcd in debian stretch uses
Comment says This file belongs in /usr/lib/dhcpcd5/dhcpcd
But /usr/lib/dhcpcd5/dhcpcd is already a file.
I assume that you mean this file belongs in the directory /usr/lib/dhcpcd5?
Also I'm not sure if you want to replace the file /usr/lib/dhcpcd5/dhcpcd as this file has a .sh extension and /usr/lib/dhcpcd5/dhcpcd has no extension?
@heartlandcoop-prichards no it is meant to overwrite that file. The extension is meaningless
