The idea is to use whatever is on the host's /etc/resolv.conf (unless
you want something fancy and then maybe you use CONFDIR and whatnot you
like to use)

I plan to do what I described in comment #10 as soon as I've some time
(I was in the reproducible meeting in Athens this week).
Do you have something to add or maybe point out something I should take
in consideration before that?

If you agree that's actually the same bug please merge them.


Sorry for the inconvincience and thanks for reaching out! :)
