[SOLVED] NM & systemd-resloved: DHCP provided DNS server isn't used

Hello,

I am using NetworkManager & systemd-resloved in their default configuration.

/etc/resolv.conf is a symlink to /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf

As it should, NetworkManager reports in the logs when it starts:

dns-mgr[0x55f2a8093240]: init: dns=systemd-resolved rc-manager=symlink, plugin=systemd-resolved

Which is what I want.

NetworkManager correctly picks-up the right DNS server from DHCP

NetworkManager[19709]: <info>  [1593431290.2268] dhcp4 (enp0s13f0u3u3): option domain_name_servers  => '192.168.199.1'

But it doesn't detect that there is a change with the running configuration:

dns-mgr: (device_ip_config_changed): queueing DNS updates (1)
dns-mgr: (device_ip_config_changed): DNS configuration did not change
dns-mgr: (device_ip_config_changed): no DNS changes to commit (0)

Therefore, systemd-resolved keeps on using the fallback DNS server:

$ systemd-resolve --status

      DNSSEC setting: no

Which https://www.dnsleaktest.com/ confirms.

If I manually set the DNS server for the interface with resolvectl, it works and the correct entries are reported in the status.

Any idea what is wrong with my configuration?

This is Mullvad client messing things up.
