Public bug reported:
After upgrading to 19.10 I noticed that resolving hostnames stopped
working.
Quick release, which package and version info:
root@caret:~# lsb_release -r
Release:19.10
root@caret:~# dpkg -S /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/resolved
systemd: /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/resolved
root@caret:~# apt-cache policy systemd
systemd:
Installed: 242-7ubuntu3
Candidate: 242-7ubuntu3
Version table:
*** 242-7ubuntu3 500
500 http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu eoan/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
The file /etc/resolv.conf was pointing to the local instance of
systemd-resolved however there was no search line, indicating something wasn't
quite right.
Restarting the systemd-resolved service did recreate /etc/resolv.conf
with expected search line.
After much debugging, I've worked out what was going wrong.
The dhcp hook file /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/resolved has a bug
in the resolver state change logic.
This may also impact on tickets 1805183, 1832050, 1832053 and maybe
others.
When doing the md5sum of the old and new state, the command is wrong. It
isn't sending STDOUT (and optionally STDERR) to the temp file but rather
putting the md5sum command into the background and then creating an
empty file for both states. Which obviously isn't different, so systemd-
resolved doesn't restart.
Quick diff of a working version (I'm not capturing STDERR but one can
with "2>&1")

Also, the script removes the script removes the $oldstate file but
doesn't remove the $newstate file.
Not sure how this made it through QA testing... But breaking DHCP client
shouldn't happen like this.
