Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.8
Severity: normal
ifup does not pass on any nameserver options to scripts such as
000resolvconf in the ifup.d directory, despite dhclient (dhclient3?)
getting nameserver info in the lease it acquires. The result is that
resolveconf, at least, builds resolv.conf files with no nameserver info
in for an interface set in network/interfaces with
(fortunately resolveconf cacks up sufficiently often on its own that it
doesn't always replace the resolv.conf file anyway, thus obscuring the
problem, but that apart, it really ought to be fed the nameserver info!)

Trace as follows - IP addresses obscured. set -x added to 00resoveconf
to show that it receives no IP addresses of nameservers, although
dhclient supplies them.

All that empty stuff around the

is 000resolvconf getting no data from the ifup call.
