[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#854343: network-manager: The search domain string in resolv.conf is being duplicated leading to problems with DNS

[Martin Haaß]

Same behavior happens here.
Is it possible that multiple search domain entries in the dhcp packet 
trigger this problem? So instead of one entry being written twice it is 
two entries being concatenated without a newline and an additional 
'search' keyword at the start of the line.

Following is a wireshark trace of our DHCP ACK. There are two search 
domain entries (Option 3) due to two name server entries.
Cheers,
  Martin
