Oops, for some reason I had marked that bug as ready to upload on my side even 
though I forgot to update the description...
fixed.

** Description changed:

- While resolvconf daemon is running, I cannot use the network, because my
- resolv.conf file is filled with invalid nameservers soon after
- connection:
+ [rationale]
+ Using madwimax on >= 12.04 causes entries in /etc/resolv.conf to stay around 
even after disconnecting as dhclient isn't properly killed.
+ 
+ [test case]
+ 1) connect to a wimax network
+ 2) disconnect
+ 3) check that the DNS server isn't in /etc/resolv.conf
+ 
+ [regression potential]
+ None that I can think of, the fix is a copy/paste from the dhclient3 line 
which worked.

  Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
  utility, e.g. service smbd reload
  
  Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
  Upstart job, you may also use the reload(8) utility, e.g. reload smbd

  To clarify servers:
  192.168.129.129 is my ISP DNS
  8.8.8.8 backup server configured in my router
  94.25.128.74… first wimax0 DNS, invalid in my current wlan0 network
  
- # cat /run/resolvconf/interface/wimax0.dhclient 
+ # cat /run/resolvconf/interface/wimax0.dhclient
  nameserver 94.25.128.74
  nameserver 94.25.208.74
  # ifconfig wimax0
  wimax0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
  # ifdown wimax0
  ifdown: interface wimax0 not configured
  
  The delay until resolv.conf gets corrupted is not constant at all, sometimes 
it's as small as 3 seconds. one time is was 13 seconds.
  If I reconnect and shut down resolvconf, I get a working network without any 
problems. This behavior seems to be a regression after apt-get upgrade from 
ubuntu 11.10 and seems to be a blocker to an ordinary user, since the network 
is effectively unusable.
