Yeah I'm actually stunned that such a design failure is not acted upon by 
Ubuntu. Guess 
they just capitalize on the work done by Debian, without having to do the hard 
work of 
actually maintaining a distribution.

However this bug MUST sting on servers and 'old-school' people that use 
/etc/network/interfaces instead of NetworkManager, not to mention all the 
HOWTOs on the 
net that suggest solutions involving /etc/network/interfaces.

Just apply the new versions of resolvconf files attached to the bug and your 
problems will 
be gone, at least until the upgrade to 10.04 :-/

I myself am moving to Debian ASAP

grtz,
Sander

resolvconf starts after ifupdown, does not pick the dns-nameserver and 
dns-search lines up from /etc/network/interfaces
