[Resolvconf-devel] Bug#783596: resolvconf /e/n/i dns-* option only works in last of homonymous iface def'ns

[Chris Francy]

Hi, Sorry to be a bother, but it seems like my suggestion got
overlooked for this issue.  Perhaps because the bug is flagged as
wontfix?  My suggestion would permit you to have resolveconf
configuration for one interface, not be overwritten by interfaces with
no resolveconf configuration.  Am I missing something obvious reason
why a patch like this shouldn't be applied?
