For some off reason resolv.conf get keep getting overwritten by resolvconf.

This is a bug in the documentation here :
http://cloudinit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/examples.html#configure-an-instances-resolv-conf

It should be

manage_resolv_conf: true

See https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+question/234041

Yes i made that change issue still persist.

[Kaizoku (neoark)]

It seems like solution works if there is not resolvconf package installed. Once its installed even after apt-purge cloud-init would not work.

Hi Kaizoku,

Sorry we haven't go to this before, but we are doing bug triage now. Is this still an issue you're seeing?

Thanks!
