i use dhcp to connect to my router (thomson speedtouch 510)
this router is 'broken' for glibc 2.10 - the result is that the computer cannot resolve names
how can i make dns work again ? (other than replacing router)
EDIT
glibc solution : make /etc/resolv.conf.head with the line
option single-request
and a blank new line after it
this works with dhcpcd 5.X but not 3.X

Hello
There are some work arounds:
1) Run a local dns caching server (just install bind in your machine and start it)
2) Start the nscd
3) Add "single-request" to the options in /etc/resolv.conf

Good Luck!

i would prefer a solution without adding running overhead (local dns / nscd) to my system
i cannot just add the single request option cause dhcpcd rewrites the file each time its run (often several times in a single uptime period)

gonna try resolv.conf.head

I think this is the same issue as here:

indeed it is. here its not slow but does not work at all though
the resolv.conf.head does not work with dhcpcd 3.2 which i use
it works with dhcpcd 5. but i have other problem with dhcpcd 5

How about telling dhcpcd to leave your resolv.conf alone?
dhcpcd -C resolv.conf
