[Bug 1624320] Re: systemd-resolved appends 127.0.0.53 to resolv.conf alongside existing entries

Update to post #17...
The fix unfortunately did not fix all DNS problems. nslookup and dig can resolve local hosts, BUT ping and ssh both report 'Name or Service not known'. Looks like the HOSTS is still required.

Title:
  systemd-resolved appends 127.0.0.53 to resolv.conf alongside existing
  entries

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  systemd-resolved, or more precisely the hook script
  /lib/systemd/system/systemd-resolved.service.d/resolvconf.conf, causes
  resolvconf to add 127.0.0.53 to the set of nameservers in
  /etc/resolv.conf alongside the other nameservers.  That makes no sense
  because systemd-resolved sets up 127.0.0.53 as a proxy for those other
  nameservers.  The effect is similar to bug 1624071 but for
  applications doing their own DNS lookups.  It breaks any DNSSEC
  validation that systemd-resolved tries to do; applications will
  failover to the other nameservers, bypassing validation failures.  And
  it makes failing queries take twice as long.

  /etc/resolv.conf should have only 127.0.0.53 when systemd-resolved is
  active.
