Bug Description
just ran into some rather serious issues for our environment because of netplan. looks like when the DHCP server provides multiple search domains, netplan strips all the spaces out and munges the multiple domains together into one long broken domain. for example:
DHCP server provides search domain string "zone1.ourdns zone2.ourdns zone3.ourdns", but netplan mangles that in /etc/resolv.conf to "search zone1.ourdnszon
this is a pretty basic bit of functionality, so I'm pretty surprised it hasn't been tested. is there a clear way to disable netplan entirely? it really doesn't feel production ready.

found the docs for disabling and going back to /etc/network/ interfaces in that file. is there a way to vote for not having this enabled by default while it's still so buggy? looking at the bug reports here, it looks like it doesn't really handle a fraction of what the old ifupdown stuff does yet.
