Actually I am guessing the current maintainer isn't reading these

But I purged resolvconf many reboots ago!
Now whenever I upgrade systemd, I have to restart ppp (not reboot)
to get the systemd resolver working again.
Not sure if it had to do with me removing resolvconf though,
or some recent change in systemd
Maybe it has to do with the standard /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/usepeerdns .
I can still ping 8.8.8.8,
but to resolve example.com, I have to start ppp again, after upgrading

Hmmm, perhaps this is happening ever since I removed the resolvconf
package. Not sure.

Upstream is asking me to use version 83 when reporting bugs.
As you can see on crbug.com, this appears to be Debian specific.
Package: chromium
Version: 81.0.4044.92-1
As noted in
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1087707
this must be a Debian bug.
