Title:
resolvconf(8): misleading description of dns-* options
Status in “resolvconf” package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
I noticed a minor discrepancy between the resolvconf documentation and
"reality".
On the one hand, the resolvconf(8) man page's discussion about the
/etc/network/interfaces file says:
For each other valid resolv.conf(5) configuration option, you can include,
in the stanza, one line beginning with that option name with a dns- prefix.
, and the resolv.conf(5) page lists the following configuration
options: "nameserver", "domain", "search", "sortlist", and "options".
On the other hand, the /etc/network/if-up.d/000resolvconf file
actually only includes support for the first four of those
configuration options -- that is, support for the "options" option is
not included.
(The resolvconf(8) and 000resolvconf files I'm looking at come from
resolvconf 1.63ubuntu11 (Precise).)
