Am I supposed to create data/template/dhcp-client/dhcp6c_daemon-options.j2 by hand? I tried to run make to try and create the template, then go from there & fill out the template like in daemon-options.j2. But my dev env is borked, and I'm starting to think that inside a VyOS instance is also where I'm supposed to do this.
