Public bug reported:

The CloudStack data source looks in /var/lib/dhcp for DHCP lease files
and compares the timestamps.

If you have a dhclient.leases and dhclient6.leases file present it will
look in the dhclient6.leases file for a DHCP server to connect to.

The fix for this is rather simple, change a if-statement so that it
checks if the leases file starts with 'dhclient.'

        if file_name.startswith("dhclient.") and \
           (file_name.endswith(".lease") or file_name.endswith(".leases")):
