[Bug 1001881] Re: resolvconf incorrectly configures resolv.conf

[Stéphane Graber]

This is actually the expected configuration. The fact that you don't get
working DNS resolving might be caused by bug 993379 which should get
resolved with the next batch of Network Manager updates (workaround is
to reconnect to the network post-boot).

You can learn more about the DNS changes here:

official Ubuntu release notes).

Title:
  resolvconf incorrectly configures resolv.conf

Status in “resolvconf” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This has happened a number of times both with some laptops. When they
  get up resolv.conf contains this:

  $ cat /etc/resolv.conf 
  # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
  #     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
  nameserver 127.0.0.1
  search langfeldt.net

  This is nowhere like right and makes it impossible to get name-
  resolution. When I remove resolvconf everything works right. This is
  right:

  $ cat /etc/resolv.conf 
  # Generated by NetworkManager
  domain langfeldt.net
  search langfeldt.net
  nameserver 192.168.1.1

  (except that domain and search should not appear in the same
  resolv.conf file).

  # apt-cache policy resolvconf
