[Bug 1972029] Re: dhclient overriding stub-resolv.conf file on Jammy

[Lukas Märdian]

Thanks for confirming, Pedro. My local testing and running of some rev-
deps autopkgtests in Bileto passed as well.

I've now uploaded this into Kinetic and proposed it for Jammy SRU.
Thanks for already preparing the testcase/SRU template on this bug.

  dhclient overriding stub-resolv.conf file on Jammy

Bug description:
  [Issue]
  On Jammy, the stub-resolv.conf file on /run/systemd/resolve gets overwritten if dhclient is executed.

  While debugging this, I found the reference on LP#1889068 [0] of the
  move of `resolved` hook from dhclient-enter-hooks.d/ to dhclient-exit-
  hooks.d/, and this new hook [2] has no reference of make_resolv_conf()
  being called.

  [Reproducer]
  -
  I used a cloud-image based Jammy installation (uvt-kvm).  Once in:

  $ cat /run/system/resolve/stub-resolv.conf

  And one will see:

  nameserver 127.0.0.53
  options edns0 trust-ad
  search .

  Then:

  $ sudo dhclient
  $ cat /run/system/resolve/stub-resolv.conf

  You'll see the definition of the nameserver(s) in, and the stub IP
  address no longer there.  To revert this, a `systemctl restart
  systemd-resolved` is needed.

  [Impact]

  This is an improper way to keep nameserver(s) in *resolv* files; the
  override of the file should never happen in these circumstances.

  [Extra]
  -
  As a minor test, I copied over the dhclient-enter-hooks.d/resolved file from a Focal installation to a Jammy one, and the problem _does not happen_ when such hook is in place.

  Let me know if further clarification is needed to proceed.  Thank you.
