dhclient should depend on resolvconf and i will fix this.

i am curious how widespread dhclient use in jails is.  should we add
dhclient to set-minimal-jail?

NB, "set-minimal-jail" is not intended to be the smallest possible set
of packages for a jail; it's meant to be "minimal" (the basic base system)
for jails.  so if dhclient use in jails is widespread, we should probably
add it to minimal-jail.
