Package: openresolv
Version: 3.8.0-1
Severity: normal
The documentation for the -m options says:
Set the metric of the interface when adding it, default of 0. Lower metrics
take precedence.
However, if you assign any metric to an interface, it will actually take
precedence over any interface which doesn't have a metric defined and isn't
in the interface_order or dynamic_order. Hence, the default metric is
actually one more than 9999999. For example:
# /sbin/resolvconf -i
lo.unbound wlan0
# cat myvpn_resolvconf | /sbin/resolvconf -m 99 -a myvpn
# /sbin/resolvconf -i
lo.unbound myvpn wlan0
# find /run/resolvconf/ -type f
/run/resolvconf/interfaces/myvpn
/run/resolvconf/interfaces/lo.unbound
/run/resolvconf/interfaces/wlan0
/run/resolvconf/metrics/0000099 myvpn
I'm attaching a trivial patch that fixes this behaviour.
