I've never used pump, but if you'd use dhcp (whose Debian package I
think conflicts with pump) you could instead manage the dhcp
configuration inside /etc/network/interfaces as well. Just replace 

  iface eth0 inet static
  # ... 

with 

  iface eth0 inet dhcp
  # without addresses etc.!

To manually start a dhcp lookup, you can still use "sudo dhclient
eth0" similar to how pump is used AFAIK.

Ciao
