   An update that has 14 recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:

   This update for Wicked provides the following fixes:

   - Initial pre/post-up/down script and systemd service start support.
     (bsc#920070, bsc#907215)
   - Fixed lease address owner and lifetime tracking to update address
     lifetimes on dhcp6 renewal, correctly drop (requesting/deferred) leases
     in wickedd not (yet) existing as lease in dhcp supplicants and avoid
     address exists error messages. (bsc#920889, bsc#907694)
   - Add missed wpa_supplicant's wireless mode names. (bsc#927616)
   - schema: Require macvlan lower device same as vlan. (bsc#927065)
   - Fixes to use only ready devices by name to avoid dependency confusion
     mapping config to wrong device, event races and wrong use of the link-up
     instead of the wireless link-associated event. (bsc#918662, bsc#921218)
   - nanny: Fix a memory-leak on policy load failure.
   - ifreload: Fix segmentation fault handling argument for --timeout option.
   - client/nanny: Initial handing of link-detection/require-link and timeout
     control flags (LINK_REQUIRED, LINK_READY_WAIT variables in suse ifcfg)
     to continue setup without ready link when requested in the config or
     based on device requirements (bsc#911562,bsc#914792).
   - client/nanny: Wait for event ACKs from wickedd instead to continue
     on successful request results where possible, to minimize the risk
     of an event backlog (bsc#905421).
   - client/nanny: fsm timer and cleanup related fixes and improvements, fix
     to use "device-setup" (MAC, bond/bridge options, ...) as state name
     instead of "device-up" and use "device-up" as state when the device/link
     is administratively set UP. Separated waitLinkUp method to wait for
     link/carrier from linkUp setting it administratively UP.
   - wireless: Consider auth-proto parameter (wpa1|wpa2) (bsc#911299).
   - dhcp4: Do not set/query mtu if set in the config (bsc#904323).
   - dhcp4: Limit MTU to be lower-equal 576 as before.
   - dhcp4: Completed user-class option support permitting an rfc3004
     formatted option or as non-rfc, but widely used string (bsc#909307).
