Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1575644] Re: resolvconf doesn't create the correct /etc/resolv.conf file when static IP addresses are used
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1003842 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1003842 I reformatted over 14.04 and installed 16.04 as a fresh start. I use a slightly customized server install ISO image that includes my own preseed file for automation. My approach is to start with a bare-bones server install on all machines and then install extra packages based on the machine's function (ubuntu-desktop on workstations, for instance). According to my installation logs, dnsmasq was installed during an "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop unity-tweak-tool" on a workstation (which of those two packages actually resulted in a dependency on dnsmasq I don't know), and on a server it was installed during an "apt-get install polipo".

No, it does not work when dnsmasq is installed. At least, not reliably. I discovered this when apache2 started ignoring the configuration for my virtual hosts because it couldn't resolve the virtual host names. I could reach some hosts, like archive.ubuntu.com for instance whenever I did an apt-get update, or I would have noticed it right away.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1575644] Re: resolvconf doesn't create the correct /etc/resolv.conf file when static IP addresses are used
If you install the dnsmasq package then that package starts a standalone instance of the dnsmasq program and resolv.conf will contain a line `nameserver 127.0.0.1` which tells the resolver to consult that instance of the dnsmasq program, which will by default forward DNS queries to the nameservers which would otherwise have been directly consulted by the resolver. The answer to the question "shouldn't those DNS servers should be included in /etc/resolv.conf regardless of the presence of dnsmasq?" is "no". Resolvconf doesn't list any nameserver addresses after any loopback address, unless TRUNCATE_NAMESERVER_LIST_AFTER_LOOPBACK_ADDRESS=no in /etc/default/resolvconf. When dnsmasq is installed does DNS function correctly?

Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1575644] Re: resolvconf doesn't create the correct /etc/resolv.conf file when static IP addresses are used
They are specified in /etc/network/interfaces just as you instructed, and the dnsmasq-base package is installed. But when dnsmasq is installed then resolvconf generates an incorrect /etc/resolv.conf. If I remove the dnsmasq package then resolvconf works properly and generates the expected contents for /etc/resolv.conf. This is a new bug with 16.04. It was not present under 14.04, and the contents of my /etc/network/interfaces file has not changed.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1575644] Re: resolvconf doesn't create the correct /etc/resolv.conf file when static IP addresses are used
Not dnsmasq but dnsmasq-base is pulled in by ubuntu-desktop. If you define your interfaces statically using /etc/network/interfaces then you have to add the nameserver information to /etc/network/interfaces on lines like "dns-nameserver 1.2.3.4". See resolvconf(8) for more info. ** Changed in: resolvconf (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to resolvconf in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1575644 Title: resolvconf doesn't create the correct /etc/resolv.conf file when static IP addresses are used Status in resolvconf package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: By default, when installing ubuntu-desktop (and when installing some other packages as well), apt will also install dnsmasq as a dependency.
