Bug ID: 291790
Summary: local-unbound: /etc/resolv.conf needed by 15.0, not
wanted in 14.3, not created by upgrade
Product: Base System
Version: 15.0-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
This appears to be an "upgrade from 14.3 to 15.0" issue.
In 14.3-RELEASE-p7 (actually pretty much any 14.*), local-unbound did not need
/etc/resolv.conf. Indeed, the file /etc/resolv.conf.no specifically says:
"#not when running name server on localhost; better to have no file"
However, in 15.0-RELEASE-p1, I find that /etc/resolv.conf needs to exist.
Indeed, 15.0's "man local-unbound" says:
"To use a locally running Unbound for resolving put
nameserver 127.0.0.1
into resolv.conf(5)."
In 15.0 without /etc/resolv.conf, name resolution fails.
When upgrading from 14.3 (which didn't have resolv.conf and worked fine) to
15.0 (which needs it to work), the file was not created. The first symptom I
encountered during the upgrade, however, was something else entirely: "pkg
upgrade -f" (and even just "pkg update") didn't work. It took me a while to
figure out what the actual problem was (i.e., not pkg or its configuration).
[More on that in a separate bug report I'll submit next.]
Creating /etc/resolv.conf made things work again.
I see this as a 1-time transition to 15.0 issue. Submitting this documents the
problem.
