[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1913581@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Eric Desrochers (slashd):

'resolvectl' has been introduced in systemd v239.

In ubuntu, a symlink has been created as follows:

$ ls -altr /usr/bin/systemd-resolve 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jul  6  2020 /usr/bin/systemd-resolve -> resolvectl

Both command can still be executed, but the symlink will eventually disapear.
It is only to accomodate the transition.

In stable releases we have systemd version lt and gt v239:

#systemd-resolve (wo/ resolvectl cmd at all):
 systemd | 229-4ubuntu21.27 | xenial-security 
 systemd | 229-4ubuntu21.29 | xenial-updates  
 systemd | 237-3ubuntu10    | bionic          
 systemd | 237-3ubuntu10.38 | bionic-security 
 systemd | 237-3ubuntu10.44 | bionic-updates  

#resolvectl (with the deprecated symlink):
 systemd | 245.4-4ubuntu3   | focal           
 systemd | 245.4-4ubuntu3.4 | focal-updates   
 systemd | 246.6-1ubuntu1   | groovy          
 systemd | 246.6-1ubuntu1.1 | groovy-updates  
 systemd | 247.1-4ubuntu1   | hirsute         

This 'sos' change enable 'resolvectl' as the preference but is backward
compatible with 'systemd-resolve' for systemd with systemd version lt
v239.
