According to the dhclient-script(8) man page, there may be hooks to change the default behavior by defining the shell function make_resolv_conf. And this is what resolvconf appears to do *unconditionally*. So, either resolvconf should make sure that /etc/resolv.conf is a symlink to /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf, or it shouldn't modify the default behavior. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
