Title:
  Oneiric: network manager rewrites resolv.conf even if told not to
  manage interfaces

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “network-manager” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  I have a PC with network interfaces specified via the interfaces file.
  Network manager is told not to manage interfaces.

  Still it stubbornly rewrites the etc/resolv.conf file erasing it
  (leaving just a comment) and breaking network connectivity.

  This did not happen on natty and is a regression.
