>Description:
/etc/dhclient-enter-hooks cannot be used to override build of
/etc/resolv.conf. The "make_resolv_conf" function defined in
/sbin/dhclient (and overridable in dhclient-enter-hooks) is
never actually called; its code is actually duplicated instead
instead of the function being called.
>How-To-Repeat:
Define a new make_resolv_conf() in /etc/dhclient-enter-hooks
(I wanted to add to search path) and watch it get ignored.
Incidentally, would it make more sense to add a "local_search_path"
or similar to rc.conf and modify dhclient-script to source rc.conf
and use this variable? (Probably not, but I'll send a patch to do
it if required.)
