Description of problem: I have to remove /etc/resolv.conf and reconnect to wifi network and then I see no softlink and all is good. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-1.8.0-6.fc26.x86_64 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
hi guys, any chance somebody could look into it? It happens every time system reboot. $rm -f /etc/resolv.conf reconnect to PA, reboot fedora and again.
Hi lejeczek, not sure to understand your issue correctly... Is the issue that at every boot you have /etc/resolv.conf as a symlink to /var/run/connman/resolv.con ? If so, NetworkManager will not touch /etc/resolv.conf at all (a symlink means to NetworkManager that resolv.conf is managed by another package). That's the expected behavior, no bug here on NM. You probably want (connman?) to avoid creating that simlynk. For NetworkManager, you can see the available options for resolv.conf management in NetworkManager.conf man page: look at "dns" and "rc-manager" keys.
Surprising is that nobody else sees it? I have had working nm, no problems and an upgrade from f25 to f26 did it, until then I did not even hear about connman. I don't really know that connman at all.

It is not installed by default on fedora.. probably you add it some time ago and in the last fedora update it has been updated to the newer version, including this simlynk behavior. I tried to install it on a fresh f26 VM and here we are: the simlynk appeared as you described. Just remove connman and delete for the last time the simlynk: dnf remove connman; rm /etc/resolv.conf Closing the bug, reopen if needed.
nope, no connman on my installation, never was, like I said, never heard of it. $ rpm -qa \*connman\* $

Anyway, the file responsible for the simlynk creation at boot was a systemd-tmpfile: /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/connman_resolvconf.conf Check on your system, you will probably have that file. If not check also in: /etc/tmpfiles.d/ /run/tmpfiles.d/ Then, before deleting the file, would be interesting to see if it comes from any package (rpm -qf)
