Public bug reported:
$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by NetworkManager
domain langfeldt.net
search langfeldt.net
nameserver 192.168.1.1
man resolv.conf:
The domain and search keywords are mutually exclusive. If more than
one instance of these keywords is
present, the last instance wins.
To avoid surprising people that don't know better (or changes in
named.conf) and to observe the Robustness principle
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robustness_principle) or some unintended
change in which instance of the keywords that win, the file should
probably only use one of those. The DHCP option in question here is
setting the dns domain and so the domain line should be generated. I
have been told that there now is a DHCP option for the search line as
well. But in any case they should not both be generated.
Regards,
Nicolai
