[Bug 1186684] [NEW] Resolveconf generats invalid resolve.conf with commas in DNS entries

Public bug reported:

I'm on Arch Linux, the latest version as of 2013 June 02.

Resolveconf generates an invalid "/etc/resolv.conf" file with entries as
follows:

    nameserver 123.123.123.123,
    nameserver 123.123.123.123

As you can see the commas are unnecessary, and it breaks "pacman"
updating, although ping works. This is because the network config is
okay, but pacman apparently uses the "resolv.conf" data and the commas
confuse it.

Please stop adding commas to the "resolv.conf" file since this breaks
important features on Arch Linux.
