Network Manager is used for much more than configuring wired
networking...  I use the network interface file to configure my wired
connections (because I require the use of VLANs and Bridges - which
Network Manager does not provide).  However on some machines I still
need network manager for the use of Wireless networks and PPTP.

Either way lets not get too far off track.

Uninstalling Network-Manager is a workaround IF you have no need for
Network-Manager.

Workarounds aside...  This is a regression, this did not occur in 11.04
and is clearly not "as designed" so the problem should be identified and
fixed...

Another workaround is:

Prevent changes to the file
# chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf
Undo previous command
# chattr -i /etc/resolv.conf
