2016-04-27 16:06:25 Thomas Hood resolvconf (Ubuntu): status New Incomplete
2016-04-27 16:43:10 Thomas Hood description By default, when installing ubuntu-desktop (and when installing some other packages as well), apt will also install dnsmasq as a dependency. When dnsmask is installed, and static IP addresses are used, resolv.conf creates a nearly empty /etc/resolv.conf file. The file only contains entries for localhost and the search domain. If static IP addresses are defined in /etc/network/interfaces, then shouldn't those DNS servers should be included in /etc/resolv.conf regardless of the presence of dnsmask?
