Title:
  network manager does not support DNS caches

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  Hi,

  this is related to bug #324233, but not the same.

  If you use a dns cache (such as pdnsd) together with dhcp, there's a
  special requirement: You have to fetch the nameservers from the dhcp
  server, but pass them to some script to reconfigure the dns cache
  without modifying /etc/resolv.conf.

  networkmanager seems to be unable to do that. It can do it in two
  ways: Either fetch the nameservers from the dhcp server and replace
  /etc/resolv.conf, or take a preconfigured setting and don't pass the
  dhcp server's nameserver. That's odd. This also violates the
  resolvconf strategy (see #324233).

  After all, networkmanager is still not well integrated into the
  ubuntu/debian environment.

  regards
  Hadmut
