Sorry for the delay in responding!  I missed seeing your comment.

Yes, both packages need this directory.  But the dhcp-server package
init already creates it if it doesn't exist:

case "$1" in
	start)
		echo -n "Starting DHCP server: "
		test -d /var/lib/dhcp/ || mkdir -p /var/lib/dhcp/

So it should be no issue moving the /var/lib/dhcp FILE spec to the
dhcp-client package.
