With a very small tweak, the Unbound package can gain support for
Debian's "resolvconf" framework
(http://alioth.debian.org/projects/resolvconf/) that mediates changes to 
/etc/resolv.conf, so that machines on DHCP will not lose their settings
to resolve DNS against the localhost nameserver every time they get a
new DHCP lease.

The Debian resolvconf package's maintainers request that nameserver and
similar packages like Unbound support resolvconf as follows:


When the nameserver is ready to serve it should 
do the equivalent of this sh script:

   NAME="unbound"
   echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1" | /sbin/resolvconf -a lo."$NAME"

and when it is no longer ready to serve it should do:

   /sbin/resolvconf -d lo."$NAME"
