Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openconnect

I have to connect to multiple VPNs, even at the same time, so I've
installed the resolvconf package to manage the resolv.conf file.  Many
applications, such as dhclient etc., in Ubuntu recognize that resolvconf
is installed and will proceed accordingly.  However, openconnect does
not seem to recognize this and removes the /etc/resolv.conf symlink
(which it's supposed to be to get resolvconf package to work).  It also
doesn't appear to set the DNS environment using resolvconf as it should.

What would be really, really nice is that if openconnect (or any utility
that needs to change /etc/resolv.conf but this bug is about openconnect)
provided a shell script that managed /etc/resolv.conf, rather than
putting that handling into the code itself.  This would not be a big
deal performance-wise since it only happens at connection establishment,
and it gives a lot of flexibility to manage these files as needed.
