This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 34 development cycle. Changing version to 34. I guess this could be done in principle, but the downsides are bigger than the potential advantages. systemd-resolved is running sandboxed. So we would need to either give more permissions to it (which we certainly don't want to do), or set up a helper service. But the use case seems too fringe to do that. Right now the expectation is that if name resolution is configured automatically by the distro. If a user wants to set some different configuration, they have to make various decisions and set a few different things appropriately. Alternative setups and other tinkering are of course OK, but then the promise of a working setup out of the box doesn't apply. So yeah, I can symphatize with the request to some extent, I don't think this is something we would ever want to support. |
