Actual impact is low to minimal, so setting the bug as Triaged/Low. This
should be relatively easy to debug in NM code and to fix; but it will
need care just to make sure things don't get busted by changes; so it
would benefit upstream input.

Title:
  NM-generated resolv.conf contains both "domain" and "search" even
  though the second option supersedes the first one

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  $ cat /etc/resolv.conf 
  # Generated by NetworkManager
  domain langfeldt.net
  search langfeldt.net
  nameserver 192.168.1.1

  
  man resolv.conf:

         The domain and search keywords are mutually exclusive.  If more than  
one  instance  of  these  keywords  is
         present, the last instance wins.

  To avoid surprising people that don't know better (or changes in
  named.conf) and to observe the Robustness principle
  (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robustness_principle) or some unintended
  change in which instance of the keywords that win, the file should
  probably only use one of those.  The DHCP option in question  here is
  setting the dns domain and so the domain line should be generated. I
  have been told that there now is a DHCP option for the search line as
  well.  But in any case they should not both be generated.

    Nicolai
