Notes;
when "things are working", host does either:
while on VPN:
{{{

while in the broken/hung state:
^^^^^^^^^^^

(even hangs w/ "-W 1") ...
dig command augmented returns!:

(I am not familiar enough with SOAL local. lookups though to say if it
can replace the host invocation in this method)
/usr/lib/avahi/avahi-daemon-check-dns.sh
dns_has_local() {
# Some magic to do tests
if [ -n "${FAKE_HOST_RETURN}" ] ; then
if [ "${FAKE_HOST_RETURN}" = "true" ]; then
return 0;
else
return 1;
fi
fi
OUT=`LC_ALL=C host -t soa local. 2>&1`
if [ $? -eq 0 ] ; then
if echo "$OUT" | egrep -vq 'has no|not found'; then
return 0
fi
else
# Checking the dns servers failed. Assuming no .local unicast dns, but
# remove the nameserver cache so we recheck the next time we're triggered
rm -f ${NS_CACHE}
fi
return 1
}
