Details

Description:

The summary says it all. Starting the netcfg.service connects to my WiFi network and configures both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses as expected. However, resolv.conf doesn't contain any nameserver lines (or any other uncommented lines). Both DHCP client daemons (dhcpcd and dhclient, for IPv4 and IPv6, respectively) are running.

Automatic DNS server configuration worked fine (with exactly the same configuration) before the switch from sysvinit to systemd.

A quick workaround of adding the DNS variable to the network's config file (and updating it manually) works fine. However, this information should be obtained automatically from DHCP and from router advertisements.

Additional info:

* package version(s)
netcfg 2.8.10-1
systemd 189-4
dhclient 4.2.4.1-2
dhcpcd 5.6.0-1

* config and/or log files etc.
The configuration file for netcfg is attached.

Steps to reproduce:
Try to connect to a network with DHCP (both v6 and v4) using netcfg.service.

Do you really have to blame four packages here? It's your DHCP client(s) who is/are supposed to update /etc/resolv.conf; what if you run them manually?
