Jiri Popelka jpopelka@redhat.com has canceled Bug Zapper triage@lists.fedoraproject.org's request for needinfo: Bug 551962: dhclient -6 overwrites /etc/resolv.conf set up by NetworkManager https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551962

------- Additional Comments from Jiri Popelka jpopelka@redhat.com The solution to this problems would be in having a middleman which takes the nameserver information from each service (dhclient, NetworkManager, initscripts etc.) and merges them together to form one resolv.conf. The openresolv (bug #668153) program addresses this.

However this BZ has been quite invalid since NetworkManager supports IPv4 & IPv6 including responding to RA O & M bits (so there are actually no reasons now to run another dhclient because of IPv6).

It could also cause more pain (see bug #668153, comment #3 + bug #679445, comment #2) than gain (udo is the only person I know about who would benefit from this).

Closing as wontfix.
