Thank you for the clarification with regard to the differences between the 'dnsmasq' and 'dnsmasq-base' packages.  

The pointer to the resolvconf documentation, however, is less on-point,
since my previous report makes reference already to the resolvconf
documentation.  Clearly, this isn't a question of how resolvconf works
on its own, but how these packages interoperate specifically in an
Ubuntu context.

It seems odd that understanding how these three packages interdepend in
that context requires referring to non-free documentation outside of the
project.

Title:
  resolvconf ignores given dns-servers in /etc/network/interfaces

Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in resolvconf package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  resolvconf ignores given dns-servers in /etc/network/interfaces if the
  interface in question is configured by dhcp:

  auto em1
  iface em1 inet dhcp
    dns-nameservers 10.161.18.34 10.129.18.34
    dns-search xxx.yy

  the "dns-nameservers"-line is ignored (it shouldn't), while the "dns-
  search"-line is honoured:

  # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
  #     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
  nameserver 127.0.0.1
  search xxx.yy

  Together with dnsmasq handling name resolution no names other tan
  local known ones are resolved.
