Sorry for the inconvenience. I actually remember (open)resolvconf
related problems and talked to upstream about that.

Could you test the following upstream commit:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?id=af189b3295847cf48bc7616ec3bfc4192458608c


If that works, I'll upload a new version including that patch.
