[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#532053: network-manager: My /etc/resolv.conf symlink keeps being overwritten

[Stefan Monnier]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.7.1-1
Severity: normal

NetworkManager seems to keep replacing resolvconf's symlink
to /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf with its own resolv.conf.
The worst part is that this resolv.conf file contains incorrect
data (it seems to accumuate entries from all previous connections).
