After updating from the testing branch I couldn’t connect via my Wireguard VPN to my provider. The DNS pointed to localhost in IPv4 and v6.
It usually updates the resolv.conf automatically with the DNS servers from the Wireguard file.
When I tried to do it manually while the VPN was connected, it showed me this:
sudo resolvconf -u /usr/bin/resolvconf: line 999: fd7d:76ee:e68f:a993::1: command not found
where the v6 address is the internal DNS address of my VPN.
After downgrading openresolv from 3.17.2-1 to 3.17.0-1 everything works again.
As I’ve been moved so kindly by @Yochanan to this section of the forum and this is my first obvious bug in testing branch, could someone tell me how I should proceed?
Do you expect me to report this bug upstream?
Will openresolv be downgraded in the testing repo in general?
Or should I wait until it is confirmed here in the forum?
If there is actually a bug, that might be a good idea.
Many report an issue, but there is typically no regression or bug in anything until it is actually confirmed as such (usually upstream).
Regards.
Then I’ll report it upstream.
Have you checked with the documentation - perhaps a .pacnew file indicating a change?
I ask because I don’t use openresolv but instead systemd-resolved and systemd-resolvconf
Just checked my pacnews, no change to DNS related stuff.
I use netctl and had an issue with dhcpcd/systemd-resolved, can’t remember exactly what it was. Since then I use openresolv as the more simple solution.
Fine - it was just a though 
They expect it to be already fixed in 3.17.3. It’s already in the Arch repos.
I’ll wait for it to arrive in testing, or is there a way to install it explicitly from unstable? If it’s already in there?
You can always use pacman -U https://.... - beware of the 
mirrors sync at different times

You can also download the package from Arch Linux - openresolv 3.17.3-1 (any) then install it locally using pacman -U.
It should provide no issues at it depends on nothing but bash.
3.17.3 solved the issue, thank you all for helping!
