Created attachment 4883 [details]
patch to fix the resolvconf issue

After upgrading to kirkstone resolvconf is not working properly.

In /var/log/boot or when /etc/init.d/networking is called this error message appears "/sbin/resolvconf: line 173: /lib/resolvconf/normalize-resolvconf: No such file or directory" 

According to https://launchpad.net/debian/+source/resolvconf/+changelog the normalization script is moved to normalize-resolvconf. However, this file is not included in the resolvconf_1.91.bb recipe.

I have added the patch to fix the recipe in the attachment.

Hi Qorin,

Can you send that patch to the mailing list for review?  bugzilla is just for bugs, not patches.

The long version of the documentation is at https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded, but the short version is just `git send-email --to openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org -1 HEAD`.

This is still not upstream and resolvconf does not seem to work without it.

The patch I am currently using on langdale/master is:

Not sure how that got missed.  I've pulled it into a staging branch and we'll test it.
