  Having read your email, I've checked my /etc/resolv.conf and _removed_
the NM comment.  Never bothered to touch the comment before, as I'm using
systemd-networkd for networking on the server. I would say that leaving
the comment is a common pattern.
  There's not much there actually, only search domain and 'nameserver ::1',
where dnsmasq listens, providing split-horizon for my network and pihole
blacklisting of advertisment networks.
  But yeah, there are no better ideas how to handle resolv.conf on upgrades.
