Aug 09 00:38:08 sf316232-b systemd[1]: systemd-resolved.service: Failed with result 'start-limit-hit'. Aug 09 00:38:08 sf316232-b systemd[1]: Failed to start Network Name Resolution. [regression potential] failure to start/stop/restart systemd-resolved, or problems adding dhclient-provided DNS nameservers to systemd-resolved [scope] this is needed only for b/f the dhclient 'hook' script is provided by the systemd package in focal and earlier, and needs fixing in those releases in h and later, the 'hook' script is included in the isc-dhcp-client package and notifies systemd-resolved in a more direct way without requiring restarting, and so doesn't trigger the restart limiting.
