OK, done some investigating and it seems likely this is the problem on
fedora:

On debian:
root at dc3:~# ls -lad /etc/dhcp/
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 27 11:09 /etc/dhcp/
root at dc3:~# ls -la /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2107 Mar  2 16:49 /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf

On fedora:
root at fed24:~# ls -lad /etc/dhcp/
drwxr-xr-- 3 root root 61 Apr 26 09:07 /etc/dhcp/
root at fed24:~# ls -la /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 123 Aug  3 2016 /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf

I think it is all down to the permissions (or lack of them) on /etc/dhcp

debian: drwxr-xr-x
fedora: drwxr-xr--

I think that 'chmod +x /etc/dhcp' would have fixed all of your problems.
