After seeing some warnings in the system logs, I decided to investigate and

It would help if we could see those warnings as well.

found out that I am supposed to enable this script to integrate the dns

Which script are you refering to?
In package openvpn-systemd-resolved, there is a config file which also installed under /etc/openvpn. This config references a script to be installed as /etc/openvpn/scripts/update-systemd-resolved 




Do I really have to do it if I am not worried about dns leaks? I'm actually
ok with using whatever server the local network has, as long as the traffic
itself is encrypted I'm fine.

If you are happy with how things are working, that is up to you to
ignore the warnings.
In my view, warnings are to be dealt with! :)
Once I am sure I understand the implications, ignoring them is not a bad idea. That said, my main concern was integrating the config with the n-m gui... now that I think about it, the warnings are proof that this is a non-issue :) 


Thanks,
Andrea.
