First, resolvconf should not fail and block an update. Fix would be to check if /etc/resolv.conf is writable in package control scripts.
Second, I think a debconf notice should be used to tell users who have immutable resolv.conf that they probably don't want resolvconf installed. I know that debconf notices should be used sparsely, but I guess this would be a proper case: almost all users won't see it, and the other ones would be happy to know that they can safely remove this package. -- resolvconf fails to install/upgrade because of immutable /etc/resolv.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/378844 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
