The only examples of the dns-search parameter I can find (besides yours)
are of the sort found in the resolv.conf wiki:
https://wiki.debian.org/resolv.conf
With resolvconf installed, you can tell it to do nothing whenever some daemon
tries to modify resolv.conf, by putting resolvconf=NO in the
/etc/resolvconf.conf file. (Note: this is not the /etc/resolv.conf file!)
Alternatively, you can use dns-nameserver entries in the appropriate stanza in
/etc/network/interfaces:
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.3
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
dns-nameserver 192.168.1.254
dns-nameserver 8.8.8.8
dns-search foo.org bar.com
