Package: polipo
Version: 0.9.4-2
Severity: important

If I tell polipo to use its internal DNS server, all web access fails with a DNS
failure.  If I look at the online config page I see that polipo thinks my DNS
server is 127.0.0.1, which is fair enough given my resolv.conf but incorrect:

----
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 192.168.10.1
search local
----

The name server on 127.0.0.1 is a zeroconf nameserver and only resolves *.local
names, for all other names it returns a failure and gethostbyname() tries the
next available server, 192.168.10.1, which does work.  It appears that polipo
does not try the next available name server and simply returns an error.

I have verified this experimentally by turning on dnsUseGethostbyname in polipo,
at which point polipo becomes usable.  Obviously I'd like to be able to turn
this off in the future.
