Package: openresolv
Version: 3.12.0-3
Severity: important

Hi Fabio,
I manage my resolv.conf by hand and as such I don't want to excercise
any daemons messing with it :)
I've noticed that openresolv seems to (non-atomically) overwrite
/etc/resolv.conf as the file my symlink is pointing to is getting
overwritten. For one this shouldn't happen if a proper atomic rename
is done but ideally when resolv.conf is a symlink to a path not owned
by your package it should not touch it at all.
This is similar to how networkmanager and systemd-resolvd handle
ownership conflicts and following this protocol will ensure only one
(or none in my case :) managment system will try to change
resolv.conf.
Thanks,
--Daniel
