 Posted: Thu Nov 15, 2007 11:39 am Post subject: [solved]resolvconf-gentoo emerge --config =resolvconf-gentoo |
 |
|
Hi,
I hope this is not something already solve but I could not find anything.
some time ago I ran an emerge --sync and DuavN world. I guess there was an update to net-misc/vpnc-0.5.1 and it also updated net-dns/resolvconf-gentoo-1.2 . At the end there was a message like "to prevent that run:
| Code: | | emerge --config =resolvconf-gentoo |
"
I did that. Since then my box does not create the /etc/resolv.conf any more. OK I am doing this by hand every time. I could not find another way to do this. I tried to unmerge resolveconf-gentoo with | Quote: | | emerge -avC resolvconf-gentoo |
but than my box does not start up any more. So I emerged it again.
Right now I ran an emerge --sync and DuavN world and I saw vpnc is without resolvconf now | Quote: | Calculating world dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] net-misc/vpnc-0.5.1 USE="-bindist -hybrid-auth -resolvconf%" 0 kB |
Will this break my box again? How can I undo this emerge --config thing I did?
Thanks for any help

Hi,
for resolvconf to work /etc/resolv.conf has to be a symlink to resolvconf/run/resolv.conf But | Code: | | emerge --config =resolvconf-gentoo |
should have done that. Anyway you can achieve this with | Code: | | cd /etc && ln -sfn resolvconf/run/resolv.conf . |
After that all you have to do is so a proper resolv.conf will be created for you.
Hope this helps |

Thank's for the answer.
I did copy and past the lines above. It did not solve the problem. I still have to change /etc/resolv.conf by hand.

For me after removing resolvconf-gentoo a broken symlink /etc/resolv.conf was left. I needed to remove it and everything worked fine again.
Try to rm /etc/resolv.conf and restart your network.

Strange... it did solve the problem on my colleagues machine...
Does the /etc/resolvconf/run/interfaces directory contain resolv.conf format files named after your network devices? |

I assume reslvconf belongs to resolvconf-gentoo ? He doesn`t have it installed refering to his first topic. |

OR just move to openresolv which doesn't require the symlink trickery
