[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#567542: network-manager not correctly applying "prepend domain-search" option

[andy]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.7.999-2
Severity: normal

after upgrading to network-manager 0.7.999-2 i found that the
search path in my resolv.conf was ordered incorrectly.  i have a
"prepend domain-search" line in my dhclient.conf.  until this upgrade
that was correctly being inserted before any dhcpd-supplied entries.
after upgrading my domains are placed _after_ those from the server.
downgrading to 0.7.2-2 corrects this behavior.

also, as the domain and search keywords are mutually exclusive perhaps
network-manager should (when appropriate) only create the "search"
line?  cf. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=504622

thanks.
