ping: bad address 'google.com'

Modifying /etc/resolv.conf, changing ndots:1, to ndots:1, makes everything work somewhat normally.

root@linuxserver-image-0:/# vi /etc/resolv.conf
root@linuxserver-image-0:/# ping google.com

There are tons of somewhat related tickets on this one, most, however, have the opposite issue where nslookup doesn't work, but, ping does work.

There are tons of upstream tickets in say, linuxserver.io repos, referencing these closed tickets.

However, there isn't a published work-around for this issue, nor, is there much of a paper-trail as to where/who/when this issue will be resolved.
