What? WHAT?!? You know, I REALLY TRY. If my BEST EFFORTS fall that far short, then whatever. Maybe instead of berating the wiki and the hard-working editors who TRIED OUR DAMNED BEST to figure this shit out and document it for the world, you could, like, help out? Make it better? *snort* Yeah. Right. But, hey. You know what WORKS? chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf THAT ONE WORKS!! EVERY TIME! But smug assholes in IRC insist that it's "wrong", or that it incurs something they call "technical debt", whatever the hell THAT means, and they keep trying to smother it. Well, guess what? If the "right ways" to do this ONE SIMPLE THING are so convoluted and incomphrensible that we can't even DOCUMENT THEM correctly, maybe they aren't so "right" after all! Oh, and maybe whichever HALFWIT decided that there should be a program named resolvconf and a configuration file named resolvconf.conf and that these two should be UNRELATED TO EACH OTHER should stop inflicting their decisions on Debian. Just a thought. P.S. this is the sanitized version of this email. You're welcome.
