I have downgraded both the network-manager and resolvconf package but I still experience complete DNS resolution failure randomly, where restarting the network manager has no effect and I cannot connect to the internet. The only way to get DNS working again is to completely reboot the computer, which is a massive pain and shouldn't happen. I need openvpn to connect to my university's ssh server at home. LTS was working totally fine for me for months but now I have run into this massively annoying issue. Killing the dnsmasq process has no effect for me. Downgrading the two packages makes it so that my vpn connection *sometimes* works but without fail, I eventually have to force restart my computer to connect to the internet at all. This is intolerable.
