Package: network-manager
Version: 0.5.1-3
Severity: wishlist

hi

to connect this notebook, I use ethernet (eth0), wireless (wlan0) or
ADSL (ppp0), depending on where I am ; network-manager makes the first
two quite easy and convenient, but unfortunately the latter quite
messy. Indeed n-m replaces (at random times ) the symlink
/etc/resolv.conf -> /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf , so breaking my
ADSL connection.

May you tweak n-m in using resolvconf ?

(Or, if you agree, I may look into it and provide a patch)

a.

ps: this was discussed in the past, and indeed , by the changelog, I see that
 resolvconf support was added ~ in version 1.4 in Ubuntu, and then removed
