Public bug reported:

Hi,

I have configured a linux bridge (vlan0) for virtual machines in
/etc/network/interfaces.d/vlan0. The usual configuration including to
start dnasmasq as a dhcp and dns server for that network.

With 17.10 that fails, systemd can't start networking.service

# systemctl |fgrep networking.service                          
● networking.service                                                            
            loaded failed failed    Raise network interfaces           


systemctl status networking.service 
● networking.service - Raise network interfaces

# ls -lF /etc/resolv.conf 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Okt 24 11:58 /etc/resolv.conf -> 
../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf


As far as I can see at that time of booting, the /etc/resolv.conf shows into a 
a directory which is not yet created (/run is a tmpfs, thus empty at boot 
time), and I have seen more trouble caused by this, that there is a certain 
amount of time in the boot process, where /etc/resolv.conf is neither absent 
nor readable, but a dangling symlink, causing lots of trouble. 

This construction to have a permanent symlink pointing to nowhere while
booting is broken by design.

Furthermore, it's really difficult to get rid of that filthy systemd
dns. That's really odd stuff.
