I agree that the postinst is a better place than the init script to run
"resolvconf -u".

I'm not sure that it should be conditional on IGNORE_RESOLVCONF though -
given that the update script will be run next time anything touches
resolvconf, what's to be gained by not running it in the postinst? And
why stop there? Why not also make it conditional on ENABLED=0?

I've created a branch with an unconditional "resolvconf -u" in the
postinst. I'm new to launchpad and bazaar so I'm not sure what the next
step is -- do I propose a merge? Do I attach a patch to this ticket?
