My educated guess would be either NetworkManager or resolveconf (or a DHCP client not even going through resolvconf), with fun with package upgrades resetting customizations as my second choice educated guess. (-:
- throw0101c 1y agoI find it baffling that distributions are making all of these system-level changes away from how a 'traditional' Linux/Unix does/did things, towards handling 'dynamic' situations, when a large portion of the installed of Linux is probably servers: i.e., why would you even consider the DHCP client situation for a server? As a sysadmin I want a static files that never change, and whose mtime is from when I installed the thing two years ago. I'll either launch vi to make changes or Ansible/Puppet/etc. Make the default the default as static-y as possible, and if someone is installing a personal system have a "laptop-config" or "desktop-config" package that adds all the dynamic bits separately.
