Description:
When using dhclient and user-provided DNS, resolv.conf is correct right after the profile has been started but it gets overwritten by dhclient as soon as the lease is renewed.

The profile I use is as simple as:
Interface=wlp2s0
Connection=wireless
Security=none
ESSID=xxxx
IP=dhcp
DHCPReleaseOnStop=yes
DHCPClient=dhclient
DNS=8.8.8.8


The version of netctl is: 1.4-2
This task depends upon

This is an issue with dhclient and can be fixed by via dhclient-scripts, which is the culprit of this behavior. Unfortunately, there are no dhclient parameters to prevent dhclient-scripts from touching resolv.conf.
