Hi, I'm "upstream author", and this -lresolv thing has always been bothering me. The problem is, If I "know what we want" or something like that, we'll fix it in a way that is bound to break lots of other systems. Now, I've got "debian" myself, and I'd think I'd test this myself. Or someone slipped a patch past me that he said was good, and I forgot to test it.
