+    with <command>systemd-resolved</command> and the tranditional stub resolver implemented in

+      (Search domains are nevertheless used for lookup <emphasis>routing</emphasis>, for names that were
+      originally specified as single-label or multi-label.) Any name with at least one dot is always
+      interpreted as a FQDN. <filename>nss-dns</filename> would resolve names both as relative (using search
+      domains) and absolute FQDN names. Some names would be resolved as relative first, and after that query
+      has failed, as absolute, while other names would be resolved in opposite order. The
+      <varname>ndots</varname> option in <filename>/etc/resolv.conf</filename> was used to control how many
+      dots the name needs to have to be resolved as relative first. This stub resolver does not implement
+      this at all: multi-label names are only resolved as FQDNs. (There are currently more than 1500
+      top-level domain names defined, and new ones are added regularly, often using "attractive" names that
+      are also likely to be used locally. Not looking up multi-label names in this fashion avoids fragility
+      in both directions: a valid global name could be obscured by a local name, and resolution of a relative
+      local name could suddenly break when a new top-level domain is created, or when a new subdomain of a
+      top-level domain in registered. Resolving any given name as either relative or absolute avoids this
+      ambiguity.)</para></listitem>
