I thought the canonical method which was discussed in the
long thread here recently was to use hooks:

Create a file 'disable_make_resolv_conf' 

/etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/disable_make_resolv_conf

with the following

#!/bin/sh
make_resolv_conf(){
exit 0
}

which does precisely nothing. Make it executable.
