Bug Description

Please forgive me if this is not the proper channel to request a cherry-pick. I'm currently experiencing this issue on Ubuntu 17.04 using the network-manager-l2tp plugin.

The Network Manager team recently patched an issue that breaks DNS resolution for certain VPN connections due to the PPP/TUN interface being unmanaged.

The patch that corrects this is 913896721d7c7c65f7e4a24e8c0d9d275a9dfbaa.

For more information, please see the upstream bug report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779087

Please let me know if I need to submit additional information or if this is the incorrect channel to request this.

I tried applying the patch in the version of network-manager that comes in Ubuntu 17.04 (1.4.4), and it didn't seem to work. In this version, the file nm-dns-systemd-resolved.c is in src/dns-manager instead of src/dns, but I assume it is the same.
Daniel, did it work for you?

Well actually I'm lost now. The code I obtain with apt-get source network-manager is different from the one I obtain with bzr branch lp:network-manager. The latter is supposed to be the most current way of getting sources, but it doesn't have the file nm-dns-systemd-resolved.c. Any ideas?
