resolvconf (1.63ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
[ Thomas Hood ]
* Debian fixed bugs (LP: #797339, #871058, #471975, #378844, #894417)
* Differences from Debian:
- /sbin/resolvconf:
+ Exit if /etc/resolv.conf is not a symlink
- debian/rules:
+ Install upstart script rather than initscript (LP: #366967, #750423)
- debian/{pre,post}inst
+ Migrate (to /run) from /var/run, not from /lib/init/rw.
+ [0706f28] Remove old Sys V init scripts and symlinks
* Thanks to Sander van Grieken for his assistance with this release.

[ Thomas Hood ]

(dynamic) resolv.conf has no content. (Closes: #644956)
