I think it's probably the right thing to do, but yes, it's a bit late for Oneiric. The installer code actually already attempts to install rdnssd if you seem to need it; that is effectively disabled because rdnssd is in universe. However, moving it to main would require adjusting the rdnssd merge-hook so that it works properly when you don't have resolvconf - possibly mostly reverting to the upstream version? > I'd think the next steps to get rdnssd by default for Ubuntu Server > would be to make sure ifupdown can use it properly, check that it > won't conflict with dhclient v4 and dhclient v6 and then have it > included on the server builds (all the others should come with > Network Manager). That server/desktop discrepancy is going to be a pain to handle. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
