[Bug 1534142] [NEW] When using unbound as DNS proxy, only 3 nameservers get used

 

Public bug reported:

I am using unbound as DNS proxy as documented in `man
NetworkManager.conf`, so I also have dnssec-triggerd installed.

When I check my DNS servers I see:

```
% nmcli dev show|grep -i dns
IP4.DNS[1]:                             8.8.8.8
IP4.DNS[2]:                             172.16.0.1
IP6.DNS[1]:                             2001:14ba:f5:1e00::1
```

The first is Google DNS IPv4, the second my router IPv4 and the third my
router IPv6 and finally the fourh Google DNS IPv6. But there is no
fourth DNS server. NetworkManager only receives three.

```
           unbound: NetworkManager will talk to unbound and dnssec-triggerd,
           providing a "split DNS" configuration with DNSSEC support. The
           /etc/resolv.conf will be managed by dnssec-trigger daemon.

           none: NetworkManager will not modify resolv.conf
```

I believe NetworkManager should receive at least 4 DNS servers as
dualstack ISPs usually have two DNS servers or dualstack routers are
configured with four. Windows also allows two DNS servers per Internet
Protocol.

I think this also applies to dnsmasq and is possibly related to bug
#1534055 in glibc.
