Sorry for the late reply, I was on a conference last week. I installed the PPA now and tested with the reproducer of the initial posting. This works for me. Also the machine in general seems to work OK with this version of network-manager.
Thank you very much Dariusz for packaging this version. So now the 1.10.14 should be removed from -proposed (to avoid need of an epoch), and the version from the PPA of Dariusz should get uploaded into -proposed, and then the reporters of the regressions in the 1.10.14 SRU informed (by comments in their bug reports) for the new SRU being verified. Could someone from the release team initiate the process by removing 1.10.14 from -proposed?

Also note the name of the interface (link). b) For the "main" connection; under the link for your ethernet or wireless devices (wl*, en*, whatever it may be), note down the IP of the DNS server(s). Also note the name of the interface (link). 4) In a separate terminal, run 'sudo tcpdump -ni <the main interface> port 53'; let it run. 5) In a separate terminal, run 'sudo tcpdump -ni <the VPN interface> port 53'; let it run. 6) In yet another terminal, issue name resolution requests using dig: a) For a name known to be reachable via the public network: 'dig www.yahoo.com' b) For a name known to be reachable only via the VPN: 'dig <some DNS behind the VPN>' 7) Check the output of each terminal running tcpdump. When requesting the public name, traffic can go through either. When requesting the "private" name (behind the VPN), traffic should only be going through the interface for the VPN. Additionally, ensure the IP receiving the requests for the VPN name is indeed the IP address noted above for the VPN's DNS server. If you see no traffic showing in tcpdump output when requesting a name, it may be because it is cached by systemd-resolved. Use a different name you have not tried before. [Regression potential] The code change the handling of DNS servers when using a VPN, we should check that name resolution still work whne using a VPN in different configurations ----------------- In 16.04 the NetworkManager package used to carry this patch: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~network-manager/network-manager/ubuntu/view/head:/debian/patches/Filter-DNS-servers-to-add-to-dnsmasq-based-on-availa.patch It fixed the DNS setup so that when I'm on the VPN, I am not sending unencrypted DNS queries to the (potentially hostile) local nameservers. This patch disappeared in an update. I think it was present in 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.4 but was dropped some time later. This security bug exists upstream too: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746422 It's not a *regression* there though, as they didn't fix it yet (unfortunately!)
