Package: dhcp-client
Version: 2.0pl5-19.1

With a DHCP server configured to send 4 DNS to clients,
dhclient write them all in /etc/resolv.conf, while
the man page of /etc/resolv.conf says :

        [...]
       nameserver Name server IP address
              Internet  address  (in  dot  notation) of a name server that the
              resolver  should  query.   Up  to  MAXNS   (currently   3,   see
              <resolv.h>)  name  servers  may  be listed, one per keyword.
        [...]

/usr/include/resolv.h says the same thing :

[...]
# define MAXNS                  3       /* max # name servers we'll track */
[...]

I think the correct behavior should be to only write the first 3 DNS
received from the server.
