[Bug 382161] [NEW] NetworkManager doesn't use manual set DNS although there's an option for that

[FriedChicken]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

Jaunty, KDE 4.2.4

I liked to use dnsmasq for local dns caching. So I set up NetworkManager
using the plasma-widget-network-manager to use 127.0.0.1 as main DNS: In
the "IP Address" tab I set "DHCP With Manual DNS" and
"127.0.0.1,192.168.2.1" as DNS. I also tried only 127.0.0.1 but it has
the same effect.

After dis- and re-enabling the wireless network to enable the new
settings (why isn't this done immediately?) resolv.conf always has
192.168.2.1 as DNS. Manual edit of resolv.conf always get overwritten by
NetworkManager.

Actually I don't know whether this is a bug in the plasma widget or NM
itself.
