/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base
::::::::::::::
nameserver 10.0.10.17
::::::::::::::
/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head
::::::::::::::
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)

::::::::::::::
/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail
::::::::::::::
nameserver 10.0.10.53

Which becomes:

# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 10.0.10.17
nameserver 10.0.10.53

I looked into the file (as suggested) and it says not to edit manually.

On my Linux boxes (Linux Mint), there is /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d dir which has 3 files:  base, head, tail.

Put ‘nameserver 8.8.8.8’ into base (or tail) and it should always get added to resolv.conf every reboot.  (You might look at all 3 files, my favourite trick for this is:

more /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/*|less

and see what’s in them before you start.)
