You don't WANT to remove that file! If you do, you won't be able to
use DNS.

You probably want to look into the resolvconf package:
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/resolvconf
http://manpages.debian.org/resolvconf
Essentially, you have two things that both want to manage your resolv.conf
file for you: your DHCP client, and your VPN client. You'll have to work
out how to make them coexist. The resolvconf package in Debian is one
such way.
