[Touch-packages] [Bug 1546624] Re: resolvconf -u does not incorporate /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file into /etc/resolv.conf
Thanks! Obviously, I should have read a little further in the manpage. My error... Do I need to do anything to close out or dismiss that bug report?

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1546624] Re: resolvconf -u does not incorporate /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file into /etc/resolv.conf
The content of the base file is processed, but due to resolvconf's rules they may fail to show up in resolv.conf. Comments in the base file get discarded. Lines like "nameserver w.x.y.z" are omitted if another line is, e.g., "nameserver 127.0.1.1.". If you set TRUNCATE_NAMESERVER_LIST_AFTER_LOOPBACK_ADDRESS=n in /etc/default/resolvconf then "nameserver" lines from the base file will be included. ** Changed in: resolvconf (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to resolvconf in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1546624 Title: resolvconf -u does not incorporate /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file into /etc/resolv.conf Status in resolvconf package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: == Requested Info == System details This may be a generic problem with Debian resolvconf, as it has been a long-standing issue in my lab, since I run a local DNS server, and I have reproduced it on several hosts running Debian derivatives: Ubunti 14.04.3 LTS systems, e.g: $ uname -a Linux leno 3.19.0-49-generic #55~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 22 11:23:34 UTC 2016 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux $ apt-cache policy resolvconf resolvconf: Installed: 1.69ubuntu1.1 Candidate: 1.69ubuntu1.1 Version table: *** 1.69ubuntu1.1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.69ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main i386 Packages Mint: $ uname -a Linux nas2 3.13.0-24-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Fri May 2 23:30:00 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ apt-cache policy resolvconf resolvconf: Installed: 1.69ubuntu1.1 Candidate: 1.69ubuntu1.1 Version table: *** 1.69ubuntu1.1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.69ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main i386 Packages raspbian: $ uname -a Linux raspi2 4.1.17-v7+ #834 SMP Mon Feb 1 15:17:54 GMT 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux $ apt-cache policy resolvconf resolvconf: Installed: 1.67 Candidate: 1.67 Version table: *** 1.67 0 500 http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy/main armhf Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status -- What I expected to happen: The man page for resolvconf states: The dynamically generated resolver configuration file always starts with the contents of /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head and ends with the contents of /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail. Between head and tail the libc script inserts dynamic nameserver information compiled from, first, information provided for configured interfaces; second, static information from /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base. What happens instead: Updating /etc/resolv.conf (which is a symlink to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf) with resolvconf -u dappears to do everything EXCEPT incorporate the contents of the /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file. == My analysis and steps to reproduce the problem The resolvconf manpage and many web resources claim that one can make "permanent changes" (e.g. local nameserver, search domain, etc) by editing the /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file, and that executing "resolvconf -u" build a new /etc/resolv.conf (actually /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf) from the contents of the head, base and tail files in /etc/resolvcond/resolv.conf.d. In fact, resolvconf -u does incorporate the head and tail files, but not the base file. Steps to reproduce: 1 - on a system that has resolvconf installed, display the content of /etc/resolv.conf, e.g.: # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8) # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN nameserver 127.0.1.1 2 - cd /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d 3 - (as root) edit the head, base and tail files, by adding an identifying comment line, e.g.: # this is the head file # this is the base file # this is the tail file 4 - (as root) run resolvconf -u 5 - Again, display the content of /etc/resolv.conf: # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8) # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN # this is the head file nameserver 127.0.1.1 # this is the tail file Note that the content of the head and tail files has been
