Bug#1055647: debian-edu-config: On main server internal name resolving fails: /etc/resolv.conf is empty



Package: debian-edu-config
Version: 2.12.32
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

On a main server, internal name resolving fails: /etc/resolv.conf is empty.
Reason is a wrong /etc/network/interfaces file, generated during installation.
In case the LTSP-server profile is chosen additionally, this file is rewritten
and a correct resolv.conf file is generated.

The d-i/pre-pgksel script writes nameserver and search entries concerning the
loopback interface. This used to work for more than a decade.
After ifupdown package changes, those entries are no longer evaluated; they
need to be moved to the eth0 interface to obtain a correct resolv.conf file.

If a monkey hoarded more bananas than it could eat, while most of the other
monkeys starved, scientists would study that monkey to figure out what the
heck was wrong with it. When humans do it, we put them on the cover of Forbes.
