Dear Maintainer,

I'm whether this might be a usability bug with the documentation or a
fuctional buf with the software itself:

According to 'man NetworkManager.conf', I expected that creating a
configuration file /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/deeperpurpose.conf with contents

[global-dns]
searches=example.org

would result in /etc/resolv.conf in a line like

search example.org

However, adding that configuration file has proved ineffective (i.e. it
does not result in any change to /etc/resolv.conf), although it appears
that NetworkManager reads it.

This appears to be
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/354



Thanks,
Michael
